(Also, there is a very short piano and flute piece posted if you would be interested)

SO the title caught my eye I was like how will someone pull that off?

Amazing JOB!!! Every movemnet really fit into its theme,

excellent interpretation.

where did you get the idea to do this?

Well, thank you, and I'm very glad you like it. This suite is dedicated to someone named Roberto Dellavalle, who taught me thoroughly about Modern Music. In return to his teachings, (which were all by email) I wrote and dedicated a very modern piano suite to him. I got the idea of 'Memories of an Asylum' from the fact that, if in music, an asylum strikes me as very dissonant. So, since I already had the intentions of making this a very dissonant work, I plugged that in, with 4 different mental illnesses.

Please, I would love more comments!

Please, I am longing for comments!

Interesting, but there is a lack of flow in many of the pieces. Perhaps this fits the ideas you wanted to depict, but if you were to connect your ideas a bit more fluently, I would appreciate the individual ideas much more.

Well, they diffinately match the mental illnesses, I'll give you that. It was an interesting listen. Actually, I was improvising on the horn to this, and it sounded pretty cool. There is actually enough room to add a horn part and make it horn and piano.

Thank you for your comments. A little info: My main inspiration for 'Amnesia' came from John William's 'Theme from Schindler's List'. Some inspiration for 'Paranoia; Final Visiting Hours' came from Liszt's Sonata in B minor. Feel free, anyone, to comment!

Please, I am longing for comments!

A score would be a good idea.
