      Hey, that is an interesting thing you spotted there. That little quote was not done consciously, but Some Day My Prince Will Come is a song I worked on a lot prior to writing this arrangement, so I guess it was at the back of my mind / fingers.

    Measures 74-99 make me feel like I crashed a cocktail party in heaven and heard something I was not meant to hear--A composition by G-d being played by G-d! It was indeed a sacred experience we all the angels gathered around HIS piano and sang the lyrics. Yes….only I can hear them! I did die and I went to Heaven hearing this song. In fact that’s where I am right now. Thanks for giving my soul flight. If but a moment.

    Rupert, I've heard this rendition for the last month, I purchased the score and I'm looking forward to play it.
    I must say measure 93 is my favorite part: the way those G and A notes are missing, but get complemented by the harmonics of the bass F and G just left me speechless.

      Many thanks - glad you enjoyed it. I took a look at your channel, and congratulations on your recording of Paul De Schlözer's etude in Ab - fine job. I once read an interview with Stephen Hough who said it was the most difficult piece he had ever learnt. I'm guessing you are familiar with his wonderful CD "The Piano Album" which contains his recording of Paul De Schlözer's etude and many other delightful rarities. If not, then give it a listen.
