Autumn 

While living in New York, one of my favorite things to do was taking the train into Manhattan in the fall. I would walk through Central Park with the trees full of color, go to the Village or walk through the old neighborhoods. And the museums. For some reason, whenever in New York, I always feel as if I am stepping back in time. These memories always stayed with me. Each fall, wherever I am - I think back to those days. 

One night while composing, a musical idea kept entering my mind. Then another, and they slowly moved forward in my mind until they begged to be put to paper. It had the feel of those memories of New York. The the sounds of the city and colored trees gently dancing - each speaking and bringing their own uniqueness to the moment. Couples walking as we did through the neighborhoods eating hot chestnuts in the cold air. Soft whispers and loud intrusions as only New York can bring. Every sight, sound, color and person blending together - the beautiful dissonance...
