Lost in Thought, by Orynn Murphy
A thought comes into your mind. First you only think about this as it is, but then it starts to change. “What if” questions appear, changing the thought slightly. One thought leads to another, and you are suddenly very far from where you started. “How did I get to ‘this’ thought,” you think, and suddenly an appearance of the first thought comes back. It has evolved now. Using knowledge you gained, and the other thoughts, you make newer thoughts that interlock. Getting lost in thought can be enlightening, maybe a little scary, maybe calming, but when all is said and done, you can’t help but remember the original thought that got you here, even if it isn’t quite the same as when you first thought it.
The tempo markings in the piece are a guideline and should not be followed strictly. The piece should be super expressive!
