Hi Everyone
Here are Four stolen basses – for the piano. These four pieces began by pinching a bass line from compositions by Scarlatti and Chopin and putting a different top to them! They’ve now undergone so many changes that I don’t know who wrote what, and what the original bass lines were from. Incidentally (for the purists out there!) the wrong notes are intended. Also, my microphone has gone wobbly, so I’ve “cheated” and loaded these into the computer to be played by machine. Sorry about that.
Click on a title in the first list to listen, and click on a title in the second list to download the written music.
Thanks

I am used to stumbling upon so much stolen music, opening lines, mid lines, closing lines and all the lines. So when someone as naturally musical as you tells me something like that, I take it with a gunny sack full of salt.
I loved the music totally.

‘Water Droplets’ is a special one.

Thanks – the bass line for that was from Chopin’s “Butterfly Etude” but I changed the rhythm and just kept the chord progression.
