    I have to share with you that your work inspired my 4 year old to want to take up piano. He can't stop watching your videos. He begs me - "mommy please show me that guy that plays the piano so good!" :) thanks for igniting that passion in him!

    I do not understand dislikes on this piece of music. One comes here because of taste in this kind of music, not by accident, and this is a great piece of music.

    To me, this song is named "The Letter" because it's meant to describe the emotions of reading through a letter from a loved one. Especially, it makes me think of a mother reading a letter from her son who's away at war. Maybe I'm crazy, anyone else agree?

    You are a phenomenal pianist.
    everytime I hear you play, I
    feel as though my spirit is
    in a world I have never been in
    before, and that world is very beautiful
    and it takes my breath away. Never feel
    discouraged. You have a teenager
    who never ceases listening to your
    magical pieces.

    🙂This is absolutely my favorite piano piece of all time! I am in my seventies. I began piano lessons with my grandmother at five. Then went on to learn from Margurite Lister, affiliated with Sherwood School of Music...and then took a few lessons from a Bill Cowdery in Ohio. However, this man blows me away. I have purchased most of his books....I always dreamed of knowing Chopin. Well, I feel this man is the equivalent or even surpasses him. I love his music... And am learning some of his pieces that I love so much. Some will take a while. Ha!

    So far, I have purchased two of this awesome composer's works. I intend to download, at least, one other book. This particular piece The Letter moves me to tears. It is so beautiful!!! I have had classical works move me to tears, especially Prokofiev, and Rachmaninoff, but this is the only piano piece that has stirred such strong emotion in me. This man is phenomenal!! So is his masterpieces. I have played the piano off and on, all my life. Some years were interrupted by life events....My son, Loves the Bell Carol, and wanted me to learn it. I did. And I am thankful that he brought my attention to this phenomenal man's works!!! This is, I have to say, my absolute favorite, so far...

    Dear David, I thought I was living in Heaven before I heard your music..since I already live in Paradise here in Hawaii.....
    I was wrong. This is SO beautiful that I am crying with Joy as I write, listen and absorb the kind of sounds my Soul has longed to hear, play..and radiate. now Thanks to the Miracle of discovering your songs..I am truly in the Zone. THE LETTER and Incantation are at the top of my list. All the others are right underneath them!! Kudos and Aloha.

    As a teenager and in my twenties (70’s and 80’s) I just loved writing letters and of course receiving them. Occasionally I would use an old Remington or an Olivetti typewriter but I really preferred handwriting them. The high I would get when posting the letters to my sweetheart or receiving his replies was priceless. The Letter, in both its versions, describes that emotion to a T. A magnificent masterpiece. You are pure genius David.

    This piece is like finding gold....
    in the sea.....
    this piece itself is shining gold to me.
    There is nothing in this world, more pleasing
    than a letter. Which do you think... is writing it
    or receiving it better? I have letters from the
    dead and those moved away.... your piece reminds
    me of how I'll see them again one day.... it
    brings peace and your composition is a treasure
    it stays in my mind... and holds me together.

The oboe, and percussion in particular. I am so overwhelmed by your talent, David it makes me want to weep. Please continue to post your videos.
