Listen here.
This will conclude the MacDowell portion of the program. This piece is pretty simple, but it creates a powerful emotional response with a pleasant, almost wistful, but still clear melody.

Trials and Tribulations of an Amateur Pianist
I spent Christmas of 2008 away from my family, and as a way of compensating for my not being there, I intended to give them the gift of self-recorded music. Over the course of the fall, I re-learned a number of pieces done in the previous 3-4 years and began recording them. A week before Christmas, the computer upon which I was storing these tracks crashed, and I lost all the data. Rather than repeat the same catastrophe, I decided to use Web 2.0 to my advantage and start a blog detailing the re-records. Also, by doing it this way I'll hopefully get in the habit and continue to record into the future as I learn new works.
