Please, Do Not Miss Me When I Am Gone

[manhopark]

I composed this piece in 5 minutes pretty much. Decided that I liked the melody so I thought I create an extended improvisation using similar chord progressions. This is the first improvisation that I have actually teared up to, I have never felt so much emotion for a piece that I have composed. There is a very personal story behind this so I thought I would like to share it.

Feel free to listen to it here. The story is quite lengthy. I am not a professional, just a man who enjoys composing music. Cheers!

Music is both soul and body for me and whatever others like or not, to be playing or listening and feel happy / sad / heroic / or any emotions when doing it, is the base of music.

If it is correct, out of beat, mistakes or whatever, it does not really matter...,in the end it is about feelings.

As the text along is sad reading, the music have feelings in my ears.

Feeling is everything in a piece. If you feel it, you can enjoy it. I spent the last 2 years, composing music strictly composing through notation. This is different. This piece is different and I thought I share it.

Thank you for your thoughts my friend.

hey
this is not the best improvisation ever, but if it could help you with the feelings you had, it was worth it
