Mixed Emotions - for Piano

This is a composition for piano that is in promotion of mental health awareness. The piece goes through a noticeable variety of different emotions and atmospheres. It begins with a grand, gentle, and expressive indroduction, moving in between moments of panic, playfullness, uncertainty, growth, downfall to the point of arms and elbows needing to be used on the piano to express frustration and total surrender. It then cadences with a haunting and unfinished phrase as a continued reminder that mental health, though important and manageable, is now and will always be present and a crisis.
