@Martin Thank you, Martin. No, I was not sight-reading. I’m not sure why Jack thought I was. That’s pretty cool, though, about Steve Goss being on your jury!

@Olli Thanks, Olli. I do not know the film at all. Is this well-known in Germany? The Cano piece does sound like a lullaby, definitely.

@Olli I love this, Olli! Like Martin was saying, you can feel the pulse without it being metronomic. The use of p-i really does change the feel of the little runs.…
