Story Behind The Song

I was watching a small rain shower begin to build, through the big picture window in my North San Diego home. As the clouds gathered and the first drops began to fell, the melody came to mind and I sat down at my keyboard to capture the idea. The mid-section was inspired by childhood memories of running, and singing, in the rain. You can see a video of the inspiration at http://youtu.be/zGgXyyahvUM

It begins with a pattern inspired by the start of a Spring shower in San Diego and builds into a happier sounding mid-section inspired by childhood memories of playing in the rain. Instrumentation features piano, solo strings, oboe and flute.
