Night Spirit update (and the other WIP recording)

Had a great day in the studio today with Beethoven Op. 90 and Chopin Nocturne Op. 48 no. 2. Some cicadas singing outside. We'll see if they make it onto the record or not.

I realized I never posted my other WIP recording here -- of the beautiful Debussy prelude Les sons et les parfums tournent dans l'air du soir -- so here it is! I decided on a tempo change after hearing myself on this recording. It will be a bit faster on the album. This is the kind of piece where you have to move around the keyboard so much that it feels like you're playing faster than you actually are.
