Default Untitled Waltz -Eric Skye

I wrote this short waltz. Seems to have something to do with what’s been happening in the world lately. Might be about trusting uncertainty. Either way I'm gonna keep it untitled. Hope this finds you and yours safe and healthy. e https://youtu.be/4gRhpQlruYU

So pensive, fits the times. When they make a movie about these days this should roll over the credits.

Really nice piece Eric, thank you. I thoroughly enjoy your playing, and especially your kitchen sessions.

Beautiful Eric, everything about it.

A hauntingly beautiful melody, and you played it with such feeling. Strong playing and a wonderful tone and sustain from that guitar. What is it, may I ask?

Nice that you can do all that in you kitchen!

Made my night.

Very good, well done!
Sadness emanates from this piece but it's superb

Excellent piece and as Remy says sadness does indeed emanate from this. Music that stirs an emotional feeling is always a good sign of quality.

Thank you Eric. A tantalizing balance of beauty and tension-most appropriate right now.

The wonderful folks at Acoustic Guitar magazine just published a transcription of the tune for any and all that might want something new to play on your guitar. https://acousticguitar.com/world-pre...7-Vtj5AvO5ttIU
