Smile Re: Winter Winds - Piano Fantasy

Hi,

Thank you for your compliments to my composition! It's indeed quite satisfying to know that you took the time to listen to it and make such accurate comments. I initially started working on this composition several years back. I have always felt a fascination for the Winter season. Specially if you can watch the weather outside from within the comforts of a nice fire place and an enormous glass window! This setting has always been a source of inspiration for me. Initially as you very well point out, my first thoughts were to work this out in a Sonata format. So, bar 244 would be first bar of the Second Movement and bar 465 initially considered the Third Movement. Then I gave up on that and decided to share it the way it was. You are also right on the fact that some segments were improvised and then I would go back and polish them or expand them as a variation of a given theme or development of a particular phrase or phrases. I definitely will follow your advice on re-processing it through Music Composer to make the entire piece properly written so anyone else could play it. I would love to publish it now that I got my registration certificate from the US Library of Congress. Could you expand a little bit more on how I go about doing that?

Thank you so much!
