Prelude #13 by Allen Rickel

The basic idea for this piece has been hanging around for quite a while. I wasn't sure what to do with it and, whenever i'd attempt to flesh it out, I wasn't happy with any of the ideas that came to mind, so I decided to ignore it. Maybe it would just go away and I could forget about it. After a few months, however, I realized that I wasn't going to be able to just pretend that this piece didn't exist. So, I decided to give it one last go. It's been a struggle and, honestly, I can't say that I love what I came up with. It feels awkward and uncomfortable to me, but maybe there's something in it that will appeal to you. I hope that's the case. Thanks, as always, for taking the time to listen.
