 Meditation on Psalm 23 - first original piece. Here is a video that I made today. It started as a linear bass exercise a few days ago and morphed into a whole piece. I was going for 'maximum air' on this one, trying to showcase the lush tone of the Stick. The piece is fairly atemporal, and often just two notes at a time. But, I'm happy with the way it turned out and think is fairly listenable.

This is my first fully original stick piece.
Cheers,
Marty

Re: Meditation on Psalm 23 - first original piece. Everything's coming together. When you're not reaching too hard for a new piece is when it comes best.

Re: Meditation on Psalm 23 - first original piece. A great example of the importance of the space between the notes.
Bravo Marty. Most enjoyable and very mellow, loved those decending slides.
Thanks for posting this.
Cheers,
Eric

Re: Meditation on Psalm 23 - first original piece. Really nice, Marty.
I like the way you resolve to the chords, and your use of the three-finger melodic approach makes the lines in both hands really flow with consistent tone and dynamics.
Pieces like this are rarely "finished". There are so many thing you can do — modulations, little embellishments — so if you have the urge to go beyond this "recorded version" follow that urge.
Congratulations on your first original tune!
