Words and Music by Eric Leva & Scarlet Keys Produced by Nick Goldston

I'm not sure if I've ever actually written about my love for Frederic Chopin on the internet before. It's about time kids!

When I was growing up behind the piano, my favorite composer was always Chopin. Year in and year out, I always brought his Nocturnes to my piano lessons at the New England Conservatory. There's just something about those pieces man. I think it's pretty magical when you find music that makes you feel that way - at a loss for words to describe why you like it. 

I can't put into words what Chopin has taught me about music. It's just in my DNA at this point.

So, last night, when I couldn't sleep, I channeled my inner Polish romanticist composer and wrote this little piece. This is my nod to Chopin - my thank you letter to him for being the most significant musical influence in my life.
