Motley medley - the beautiful melodies of Dvorak, Mahler, Mussorgsky, Mouret, and Copland are adapted for
fingerpicking guitar. From the CD, RIVER FLOW and shortened here (the original is over 6 minutes)
It's called "LOOSE DAWG".

Every once in a while I pull out the cello and get familiar with the instrument again.
This excerpt is my son and I playing a Boccherini cello duet back in 1996.
Not exactly professional level, but I was having fun

Back in 2000, I recorded this instrumental as a musical impression of sunlight shapes
and small objects for my first CD, INTO THE FLOW.
In 2011, it was remixed by Emmy winning composer David Traugh
for my remix instrumental CD, RIVER FLOW.
I created this video recently and lopped off the first section of the tune
(It originally started and ended with RECTANGULAR SUNLIGHT).
In this version, you hear CARPET FUZZ first, then RECTANGULAR SUNLIGHT.
Relaxed - no attitude.
