Sometimes memories of people and places of the past suddenly come to mind; the Portuguese call this feeling "Saudade". I was contemplating this as I was writing "Forgotten Waltz". The piece never truly resolves, and evokes some distant place or time that can never be had again...
You can listen to the piece and download the sheet music here: https://www.stavrosfirstcomposer.com/forgottenwaltz . Special thanks to Stephen Halloran for the recording.
The cover art is a pinhole photograph I took.
