"Farewell" Nocturne by Baize Liu Farewell Nocturne


Download video of sheet music (mp4)
Audio recording (mp3)

When I was at UMass as a piano accompanist, every Friday morning I used to head to Dunkin Donuts, pick up a Box O' Joe, and bring it to a classroom, where I met with some of the student composers in the department. We chatted about whatever we felt like and showed off our music to each other. Inspired by Seinfeld's show where comedians chat in automobiles, we called our weekly meeting "Composers in a Classroom Getting Coffee".

Baize was a regular. He and I became friends and had many good conversations about music, life, etc. When I left the job at UMass, Baize was kind enough to write and dedicate this beautiful composition to me. I've recorded it here and synced up the audio with his sheet music.
