Q: How does one find one's real desire?

A: Walk down Memory Lane.

Here is the first piano piece that I ever intentionally made with the act of musical composition in mind.

4D, composed 1974.

I was 20 years old.

A friend of mine found it, digitized it and sent it to me.

For what it's worth, the pianist is Joan Tower. In reflection, having her as a teacher was an honor beyond the description of words.
