Wow, a truly rich and harmonically dense piece...
How beautiful! I can't stop listening to it again and again! I envy your improvisations on the four-note and harmony of the standard, and I really don't know where they come from, but they're so perfect, truly magnificent...

thank you so much Carmelo!  it really is just a lot of practice and listening to what others are doing.  and making many attempts and throwing away the ones that are terrible   i'm glad you enjoyed it.

Nice, very ”glad” ending 

Sounds great! Feels like flying softly and lightly above the clouds without worries…. who cares.
I could listen to this piano sound  all day. Have you changed something or is it my old ears…?   It sounds so - REAL.

Which piano, which preset (modified?).  Ah, love the sound here.
Thank you budo.

Best wishes,

Stig

thank you so much Stig!  i'm glad you liked it.  tbh i don't remember what piano this is.  maybe Steinway B?  i kind of rotate among the Steinways and the Kawaii.  those seem to be my favorites now.
