Wanderlust | Grade 2
Randall Standridge Music Publications
Wanderlust was written early in the pandemic when no real-time music making and no traveling were allowed. I had been feeling totally lost and my soul had been restless; those are the two things that make me feel alive. I ended up writing this piece to capture that love for adventure and possibility, and the wistful reflection that comes from time away. The opening is inspired by my 14 year old English Pointer Mix, Tucker. Even though Tuck has hip dysplasia and arthritis in his knee, he gets up every morning and BOUNCES around the house, chortling, with multiple toys in his mouth like this day is just going to be the best. day. EVER. I hope you experience the same amount of joy and adventure as you explore this piece!
