Thanks Simon. Composed it awhile ago but just posting now and this week's events made the title choice all too obvious.

Brother, I believe that is the most soulful piece yet. If you’ve ever watched “Spinal Tap”, Nigel Tufnel states that Dm is the saddest of all keys. The movie of course is parody, but the statement rings true. Brilliant work my friend!

Much appreciated Greg. I've not seen the movie but I'll keep it in mind.

Sensitive portrayal. Had to look up dolorous. Your talent for composing is a gift.
