Births and deaths often inspire me to write and this piece is dedicated to a local legend Mary Rose who passed away in 2015. She was Irish and this piece makes good use of a pentatonic scale.
I first picked up the guitar at 15 in the late 60's to learn Led Zeppelin riffs.
In 2008, after 40 years of playing and teaching the guitar, I switched to the piano and have never looked back.
Piano has greatly assisted my composition and improvisation skills and is brilliantly useful in the production process.
