I just finished recording and uploading the video of me playing this piece on YouTube, and I’m happy to share the link here! I’ve been learning to play it for a while now, and it was one of the pieces I could actually play as my broken little-finger was recovering after a minor bicycle accident. It’s so much fun to play with the 11/8 (or 11/16, whatever) time sections early on and the 13/8 (or 13/16, whatever) time sections towards the end of the piece! It’s fairly straightforward otherwise, but really requires some attention due to the repetitions that one tends to get carried away with. I love the solo composed by Alex Lifeson on this one, as I do most of his very clever guitar work! And as much as I could perhaps play it better, I’ll go easy on myself and settle with what I have in this video.

I’ve been learning to play another awesome song by Rush, that I’ll hopefully record and upload soon, stay tuned!
