Description Another waltz I composed last night. It has 3 parts: the mellow beginning, followed by a rapid melody and ending with a soothing Coda. Actually the last part is my favorite section of this piece. I hope you like it too.
The picture was taken September 2008 just south of Redwood National Park in California, on our way back from Washington State. The West coast and beaches are breathtaking.

Thank You Feter
Hope you are doing well.

kristyjo said 103 days ago
Absolutely lovely
This is a bit Chopinesque. The sections are very nicely contrasted, yet they fit together beautifully, too. This is really quite sophisticated music. You play so gracefully!

Enrique Gil said 102 days ago
Hi Kristy
It is a pleasure to hear from you and thank you for listening.

paul f. page said 103 days ago
Yes...
graceful it is. Your Chopin background is always on display in these little piano numbers, but you give it your own unique twist that is so very delightful to listen to. In this comp, it feels like you have discovered a much sharper sense of rubato in contrast to other things I've heard of yours. I like it very much as it shows wonderful control and adds a distinct flavor to your playing. Um, I don't think the quasi jazz chord ending to the middle section fits the style of all the rest. Might be something to reconsider, though splicing something new in would certainly be a pain. It is not a big deal, nevertheless. ... The Ivory sounds much more natural in this recording and is delightful to listen to. I wish we could hear more of your compositions and wonderful playing. :)
Peace.
Paul

Enrique Gil said 102 days ago
Ok Paul
I will try to keep it a little more cohesive next time. For some reason, I keep changing styles in the middle of my pieces. Can't help it!
I know the Coda section, although nice, it comes after the presumed end of the song. Its just the way it came out.

guitapick said 102 days ago
How nice...
...to hear such a sweet waltz...I love how you added the last part...a time to reflect...a very welcome surprise.

Beautiful, Enrique...

Hello from California....
to New York! Glad you liked it. Glad you listened. Thanks!

the Enrique genre
I always know I am going to like what I hear when I find your music. The first movement seems to be in the Romantic era, then the middle section seems to waft between 1910 ragtime and 1930 jazz, then the last section feels like a modern waltz-ballad-kind-of-thing :-) But I think they fit together nicely, and most of all, your ebb/flow playing with the tempo is great. I would mention that the overall volume of the recording is slightly low (compared to other pieces I'm listening to), so you can probably increase the master volume a bit. But the music is wonderful, and I agree that the Ivory piano software sounds excellent.
ttfn,
Drakonis

Enrique Gil said 102 days ago
Thank you Drak
To me, it is always a hit and miss with the volume. I will try to increase it a bit next time. Your suggestions are always helpful and always appreciated.

Char said 102 days ago
Composed this last night?
Beautifully played. Thank you. You definitely have a gift.

Enrique Gil said 102 days ago
Hi Char!
yup!, last night. The problem is, when I start playing, I may not stop until the wee hours of the morning, so can't do it unless I have time off. Otherwise I'd be falling asleep the following day! Boomer! I need more days off!

Bubowski said 101 days ago
A wonderful
sentimental piece. Beautifully played and composed. The level seems a little low on the final recording, but otherwise very nice.

Enrique Gil said 100 days ago
Hello
Thank you for your comments.

Bowman said 100 days ago
I can...
always count on a lovely composition from you Enrique, every time I check into a new posting of yours. You didn't disappoint this time either.
My favorite part is the reflective coda.
Best,
Charlie

ElPeruano said 99 days ago
wow!
I had no idea what to expect when I went to your page, but this is really wonderful.

the piano sounds very lifelike for midi, with kind of a small room reverb that sounds very natural.

very smooth dynamics and transitions. beautifully composed, with a simplicity accented by flourishes that appear effortless.

glad I stopped by!

Very nice. Your playing is very smooth. Your dynamics and tempo changes work well to produce an interesting progression through the piece.

Thanks
