I just thought I'd share with the list. Almost two weeks ago, I mentioned here that I had committed to doing regular music composition for 100 days in a row…after a year of producing essentially nothing!

Today, I have a small piano piece finished that I can share with you. This piece is interesting because it has quite a bit of obvious math embedded in it…and it's a little more process-oriented than most of my pieces.

I'm also learning (and re-learning) things I thought I knew about the creative process…so far, this project has been worthwhile and rewarding.

Peter Saint-Andre asks:

Excellent work, Adam! Do I hear a whiff of Debussy in the harmonies?

Adam Grimes answers:

Debussy? Not deliberately. (Though I'm far from an expert on his music…I'm sure I haven't played two dozen of his pieces over the years.) But the harmony is very ambiguous at times, which might be the tie-in you're hearing…so, yes, I can see that!
