Still writing notes to myself, one of which incorporates a violin, though I once thought all of these would be for piano alone. XIII is missing because it's a note to myself that I looked at again and got an further idea, so it's now about 5 minutes long and in process of becoming something. I'm not too sure what, but it's nice to know something might come out of these little things. XIV is for somebody to learn and play, and maybe shouldn't be put in this group.

Howdy MG,

I've just been listening to these again, and they are intriguing. How are they coming along?

ttfn,
Sherry

Hi Sherry,

XIV will remain as it is, though it may be orchestrated as part of a suite some day. The family that Lukie lived with for 20 years has a friend that played the piece for them. Spot lived here for 21 years.

XII was done quite a while ago as a test piece. No plans, now, for it. But I do play the midi every now and again, and at times get a twinge of an urge to do something more with at least a part of it. Unfortunately, I haven't the faintest idea, now, of what that might be.

XI is the first idea for another violin sonata. Of course many more ideas are still needed.

all best,
