Part of the great Radical Dreamers 'Far Promise' ReMix flood of April 21st, 2001. As Mr. Matthews points out in his ID3 tag 'This is a Real steinway Sir' - this is acoustic piano and nothin' but, a good counterpart to Prozax's intonation for the more solo-minded 'Far Promise' afficionado. The recording ain't perfect, but the arrangement damn near is - excellent dynamics, lots of emotion, and great fingerwork on some of the ornamentation that's been added in. I'm on a deadline now so I can't write any more, trying to get these all up by midnight - a good one!
But moreso, in this I get an overwhelming sense of listening to something that has been lost from the world for a century; like a masterwork of a composer who died unappreciated. Unintentional or not, the disregard for recording quality makes this piece quite special, and speaks to me on a lot of levels.
This is one of the best arrangements around, if you ask me, and the roughage that is supplied by the production quality actually goes down smooth as well. Perfectly imperfect, and something we aren't likely to see ever again to this magnitude. Which is probably just as well. As a one off, this achieves so much.

Actually, scratch the dishes part, that can stay, but the heavy distortion near the end hurts. :-(

I congradulate you on making such a fine piece of music.. Its sorta late here now, and I shall be taking my rest. So I'll get a good night's rest and wake up tomorrow to some more school.. :| Anyways Bye!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it's my understanding that this was actually done on a real piano, Steinway brand. It's a beautiful rendition, definitely gets 5/5 stars from me.
