"Prologue"

Recently, I learned the arpeggiated synthesizer part in "Prologue."  To this, I could add the synth bass part that I learned a couple years ago.

The liner notes for the CD re-issue of Time aren't very detailed in terms of the specific synthesizers used for the album.  I used my Moog Subsequent 37 for the bass part and Nord's sample of the Hohner String Melody II for the arpeggiated part.  I'm pretty sure that neither of these is accurate, but they're the best I could do.

I did the notation to put in my file, and I figured that I might as well put it in the video too.  Note that the synth bass part actually starts before this; I just started it where the arpeggiations begin (at ~0:39 in the original recording).
