Deer Track, June 8, 2013

Deer Track, June 8, 2013 (mp3) (pdf)

Here's another Deer Track piece from the official CD. This one was "commissioned by Ron Cleveland and dedicated to Serena (Casey) Cole" as part of the Kickstarter project and is a great example of music that would not exist without the support of the Kickstarter participants. I could have done any number of things last year on June 8 but, because of Ron's generosity, I was motivated to write this music.

I really like this photo as well. It was taken, as were the preceding three photos, just a few weeks ago while walking the dog near our house. It appears to be some remote location but actually there is quite a large town just out of the frame to the left. We do see deer frequently in this field but their pathways are harder to spot than the trails they create in the forest off to the right of the photo.

Dear John D.

I came here to compliment your piece and to thank you for the sheet.
I am a beginner on mandolin, and found your song in Mandolin cafe. I downloaded 5 songs from every style and your song kept in my mind. It is my favorite track in my download list. You are very talented and professional. Please keep your great job and you have a new follower now :)

Best,
- Fernando, a Brazilian fan
