Yeah, it seems that of the various classical styles of piano, Baroque better lends itself to adaptation into other more traditional and contemporary genres. I'm sure Mike would know why that is, but I sure as heck do not! I just know that it seems to work that way. I am not a huge fan of classical music, but this has been a very interesting project! However, I doubt that there will be much general interest by listeners in this. But, I am enjoying the heck out of it!

In fact, I should have a CD available in 2 or 3 months of songs in which I have put Baroque piano riffs into modern and traditional music. I have 8 of the songs written and recorded in some degree of the evolutionary process. So far, I have 2 that are Movie Theme, I Rap, I Reggae, 1 Upswing Jazz, 1 Blues-Rock, 1 Alternative Rock and 1 Latin Jazz. I am not sure what the other 2 are going to be, but I am thinking about another Latin Jazz (have a tune running through my head for that) and who knows what else. I have tried Country several times, but can't make it work convincingly. We'll see.

Glad you enjoyed the tunes! Best to ya, cobber!
