3,4,5,9,10 are my favorites. 1 and 2 were me getting the composing motor running after rusting for the last decade. 11 is the sound-track I wrote for a
client's marketing video, so its content and structure are influenced by timing needs of the video itself. #3 was written over 10 years ago, for my wife
and her dad, who were a beginner cellist and pianist at the time.
Making these videos was very difficult. Most of the pieces are very tricky and I found myself focusing on playing in tune almost more than anything else, given that they are straight run-throughs with no edits. Of course, playing in tune is like a whack-a-mole game for those of us who don't have time to practice. The music suffers a bit from this degree of technical focus, but we mortals must pick our battles.
Yes, I cower in the infinitely deep shadow of Bach.
