Track 3. Mind’s Ear

This is a piece dedicated Bruce Adolphe’s book, “The Mind’s Ear”. This book is an excellent guide to improving your ability to “audiate” or hear music in your mind. This piece is loosely based on the A section to Body and Soul. I wrote it by ear without realizing that it was basically Body and Soul until reflecting on it after the fact. I’ve done this a few times in my composing practice, either writing a tune that was already a progression or re-writing a tune I had already written but forgotten about. You can also listen to the track on Band Camp.
