23 April 2008, #4a. "Anabelle Gurwitch" - 4m07s

In this piece is another example of a treble pedal tone. It's an open fifth, which lets me imply either minor or major with the tune. You can hear it's clearly minor for the first minute, but then it becomes slightly nebulous.

I especially like the accented notes that fall before the beat. It gives an interesting rhythmic cadence, sort of a stumbling feeling.
