    Story Behind the Song
    This song was written after a very memorable week at Pinewoods Dance Camp in Plymouth, MA.
    On the last night of camp, I was jamming until very early in the morning with Suzanne, a flutist working on crew. We had been discussing writing folk tunes, when she played 5 seemingly random notes on the piano.
    When I went home the next day, I turned her notes into the first five notes of this tune, "Reel for Suzanne". Combining this tune with the traditional tune "Tam Lin", and adding some electronic instruments, I created this arrangement in a week and a half, for eventual inclusion in my upcoming synthesized folk music CD.

    I hope you enjoy it!
