01 / The first 30 seconds

30-second entrance

Hear the weight and breath of the first phrase. Solo piano is not only melody; touch decides how close it sits to you.

Mood / situation

Solitude, short focus, entering through one small detail

Minute to hear first

00:00–00:45: hear how the first phrase lands, then whether the second answers it.

02 / LISTEN FOR

Three things to wait for

  1. Weight of the first phrase
  2. Air left by the pedal
  3. Whether the next phrase answers

03 / RIGHTS
