I wrote this piece during the fall of 2017. My office window had a wonderful view of a line of trees. As the trees started changing colors I was moved to write a piece of music the embody the tone of the season. Randomly, I remembered Alfred’s line from the movie “Batman Begins”, “Why do we fall sir? So that we can learn to pick ourselves up.” (I’m pretty sure he was actually quoting Thomas Wayne, but I remembered Alfred saying it) I felt that particular quote would be a nice subject for the piece as a whole, especially with the inclusion of the word fall. Over the course of this composition, I tried to give a taste of what it might feel like to pick yourself back up after a fall, using the musical palate of autumn.

I’m proud of how it came out, and I hope you like it!
