Regrets


(July 9, 1996)  "Cut" time, F major. Composed in one sitting during a thirty-minute break between lessons. Lots of sophisticated jazz-like harmonies and some simple double-note work.  Dedicated to Elizabeth Collins, who gave the first performance in the winter of 1997.  I have used this piece many times as a church offertory, and I must confess that it has grown on me through the years.

The day of this posting, October 24, 2015, is Elizabeth Collins's 31st birthday. Happy Birthday, Elizabeth!  Do you still play this?
