Injury

Yesterday I resolved that I should actually invest sometime in practicing my extended techniques for piano. It has only been something that I do when improvising with others and I have never taken the time to work on it by myself. I reasoned that devoting a little time to that could really help develop the things I have been doing inside the piano into a more mature musical language.


The result is that I have badly hurt my hand from twisting into uncomfortable positions in order to achieve interesting combinations of piano harmonics.


There are also some recordings. Since this is still in a developmental stage, I'd appreciate feedback of any kind.
