Sleepy Wren (two posts in two days???)

Posted by Moonhare on December 23, 2021 at 4:21 am

Sorry for posting twice in a row! Last one before Christmas I promise but after looking back at my intro to “Wren in the Woodpile” I realised that I was whinging about not being able to play something fast enough when I should be celebrating what I can play. So here is the antidote to that and a lesson learned!

@Moonhare This one changed the full tempo of the piece. I like the arrangement and feel of it, but I think the first one gave more of a feel of a wren flitting about in the woodpile. Love how you’re experimenting!

  Yes I agree with you totally. I’ll keep practicing the fast one and eventually will get there!

Isn’t it great when the light bulb goes off?! Nice @Moonhare It’s amazing how we can play just one chords but make it sound different in may ways. 😊🧙‍♂️😎

  Couldn’t agree more. Just one of those little breakthroughs that spur you on to more things.

Hi Darren ( @Moonhare ), that was also a great instrumental piece. As you said, the slower, steadier tempo “has changed the entire piece”. I don’t feel like I enjoyed one more than the other, they’re both great sounding pieces of music🤩

  I love the faster one but the slow version brings a totally different vibe and can be really expressive. Still experimenting.

Very good! Nice feel to it. That was a great experiment seeing how the tempo changed the song. Is that two for the price of one? 😉
