Hello all--

Some time ago I mentioned a recording I made, playing one of my recent
piano compositions, "Arabesque 1"--

I had begun to work on the notated score of the piece at that time,
using the excellent program LilyPond--

--but my work was delayed twice by encountering bugs or issues with the
program. The primary developer (Han-Wen Nienhuys) kindly fixed those two
bugs (and I donated some money--I enjoy helping to support free software
that I use and love to the extent my budget allows) and I was finally
able to complete the score. If anyone is interested, or curious to see
what the above audio file looks like on paper ;-), it's
here:
