Question: why is the title Left Hand Song now? Just curious. :D Thanks!

She recorded this version with Joshua Bell for his album "At Home with Friends." I think they just wanted a shorter title?

I was thinking about the title, my guess is it is called "Left Hand Song" because she composed it for Joshua Bell's new album, and he plays the violin, and the left hand is the more important hand when playing the violin.

actualy this is the same song as "a lesson in how fleeting preservation is"

it was already called "left hand song" before she recorded it with joshua bell (there's a photo of a track list of a sidney show in 2008 where the song was listed)

from what I could gather from the video where she played with joshua, she seemed to use only the left hand for this song
