I found it!
Ok.. well, let me restate that.. After many years of searching, I was gracefully Given it.
I'm speaking of this Style, this compositional style... just a few years ago, the beginning of 2002 to be exact, I finally came across the piano style that fits me perfectly.
In a nutshell, it's improvisational. It's.. stream of consciousness mixed with impressionism. But most importantly, it's not mine to keep. God has graced me with this music, but only so that I can share it with others.
So please, listen, enjoy, try to understand what i'm trying to say with the music.. and please, pass on this gift to others.

I'm fascinated by your activity and hope you use your gift wisely. I'm presently practicing Flamenco music on a new Dobro. Previously I played some Bluegrass and melodic Banjo. Interesting enough when I got into Flamenco and Spanish type music I felt I had found my music. Bluegrass Banjo was a challenge but sometimes I didn't feel it was truly me. I thank God after every practice.
Best wishes.
This _does_ sound interesting. I'm looking forward to your audio post.
Hi. Your music blog looks like a very good idea. Perhaps you could expand the concept in the future to play some audio posts of your piano music.
Great site.. there Bill.. very much like the intro piece.. looking forward to hearing more as an insight into you, your family and your walk with the Lord... keep it up.. For all of you listeners out there.. I have had the opportunity to record with this guy.. he's got skills..

Thank you for asking, Deb! As a matter of fact, I just finished the cd itself today, and am working on editing the insert. I hope to have it ready any day now.

Bill, your work is absolutely beautiful! I just listened to each here on your blog and have relaxed more in those few minutes than I have all week, lol.
I just purchased your cd and would love to be able to share your music with my clients! My website is set to go live as of tomorrow. The url will be www.nataliekimball.com (I am a photographer). Would you please allow me to use your work RF?
Thank you so much!
