#31 - Lullaby

…or music box
1

Hello. I hope you’re having a good week.

Today’s piece is in the form of a simple lullaby. If I were to spend more time with it I’d first focus on tone and touch. I think it’s important that a lullaby have the right kind of key touch, which I could improve upon in my playing. As for tone I was toying with reverb to achieve a spacey quality at first but then I realized it’s not “spacey” we want but “dreamy” — a quiet nursery rather than cathedral. So if I get back to this one at some point I’ll play around with those things.

So there you are: a piece of music with a brief bit of context on its making. I feel that I’ve achieved my musical purpose for today and I hope you would agree!
