Two weeks ago, I started taking piano lessons, something I’ve been dying to do for a very long time now! But as they say, there is always a right time and place for everything!
As part of this week’s assignment, my teacher asked me to compose an original piece of music. After playing around for a few minutes on my old rental Hudson, I hit upon an interesting chord progression. There are still a couple of chords in here that I don’t yet know the names of; I was very fortunate to have accidentally played them while fooling around!
Here’s the track. I’ve named it Dissonance – the chord progression, for some reason, seemed very agitating and tense to me at certain points.
The recording isn’t that good as I used my Powerbook’s in-built microphone. I should buy a good microphone perhaps.

Great post. I’m going to share this with my students!
