"After work, in the night" A short piano piece

[Gast AndreasvanHaren]

Hi!

After the longer piano works I wrote the last months, I feel the need to write some lighter music, so here is the first of a series short piano pieces:

Your pieces always sound very professional

You played them yourself I think? Or are these mp3s just the best pianosamples I've ever heard?

Listening to the "cat's play", I really can imagine a cat playing with a bag of wool on a couch. "After work in the night" is a really beautiful ballad. Good for relaxing after - as you've said - having a long day of work.

The cat's play just has one misstake: It's a bit too short. It could be a bit longer, not much longer but one or an half minute would be nice.

Hi Flobby,

I do play them myself, yes, but it's cut and paste work before everything is like it sounds. I did study classical piano professional, but don't have a perfect technique myself. I'm more interested in writing, and have not much time to practice next to my job.

I can make it easily longer, but my goal is to write a bundle of short works, if possible within a simple A-B-A form. This easy form gives me the space to focus more on making interesting phrases. When I feel I studied them enough, I will expand the form again, maybe into my third sonata.
