Late 791

Late 791 is a session on Music 2 Work 2.com that consists solely of piano tones. It is a dramatic musical piece, full of changes in tempo and mood. It begins at a slow tempo with an almost solemn sound. Further into the piece, the rhythm changes to a faster tempo and the mood becomes livelier. A dramatic change in tempo about half way through leads into a section reminiscent of Moonlight Sonata. The ending has a happy, more upbeat tempo giving it a hopeful feel.

For me this piece speaks of change - whether changes in life, changes in attitude, changes in feelings and moods. It has slow, solemn parts, sections where it is more mellow and more cheerful, one part where it is even dark and sad. But, Late 791 ends with a rhythmic, cheerful sound indicating to me that whatever the changes are about, there is hope and a possibility for peace and contentment.
