Time for a music post?

Friedrich Burgmuller -- Arabesque

I know my touch is not the best! My apartment is small enough that it's difficult to squeeze even a digital piano in there, never mind an acoustic, and a better digital is very much on the "Someday... maybe..." list -- I would need to be better, and also richer.

I do feel like I'm making progress, however slowly -- slow, I guess, being the nature of the thing. And I'm having fun with it, which is the important thing. (And, surprisingly enough, not relapsing into tendinitis!)

I feel weirdly defensive about having taken up playing around with music again over the last month or so -- like, if I have that much extra time to spare, shouldn't I have been using it to chase down the looming deadline? But I've heard from pros before that writers need a hobby that isn't writing, and I think it's true. Writing is still fun after it's your job (despite all the whining I do!) but the stakes get too high when you're getting paid for it. I need something else to do that makes me feel accomplished and makes me feel good about myself... but doesn't press the ANXIETY button.

Anyway, I have uploaded some music!

Final Fantasy VI -- Rest In Peace. This is the music that you hear after your whole party dies.
Final Fantasy VI -- Shadow.
Bela Bartok -- Children at Play.

Hey, remember last month when I got a digital piano? I had some vague idea of posting some music every month, but haven't managed to get around to it till now -

Song of the Dark Woods by Elie Siegmeister. Short little contemporary piece, about .5 MB.
