This is my 4th playlist, now with selected SoundCloud music I discovered and enjoyed over the past two months and one week. I hope you'll enjoy the beautiful - and varied - collection too!

The cover photo for this playlist 4 was taken by me on 26 July 2023 about noon from my house garden in Reading, England, as I was admiring this ephemeral play of nature, with the sun shining through behind the dense cotton of hundreds curly little clouds sticking tightly together...

Duration: 2 hours 22 minutes (28 tracks)

The Last Scene

Lingering Echoes – The Station 
June 2023
Duration: 2:35
Fascinating sonic places that provoke lingering memories. 
Photo of the Old Penn Station in the 1950's 
Special thanks to John-Marc Ventimiglia @john-marc-ventimigliafor his highly valued musical input and for creating the “The Station” sound library used to compose this piece.

The oldest terminal station in the world was Crown Street railway station in Liverpool, England, built in 1830, on the locomotive-hauled Liverpool to Manchester line. The first stations had little in the way of buildings or amenities.  Early stations were sometimes built with both passenger and freight facilities, though some railway lines were goods-only or passenger-only, and if a line was dual-purpose there would often be a freight depot apart from the passenger station.

Many stations date from the 19th century and reflect the grandiose architecture of the time, lending prestige to the city as well as to railway operations.  Countries where railways arrived later may still have such architecture, as later stations often imitated 19th-century styles. Train stations built more recently often have a similar feel to airports, with a simple, abstract style.

Records:
• The world's busiest passenger station, with a passenger throughput of 3.5 million passengers per day (1.27 billion per year), is Shinjuku Station in Tokyo.
• The world's station with most platforms is Grand Central Terminal in New York City with 44 platforms.
• The world's station with the longest platform is Hubli Junction railway station with a platform length of 1,505 metres (4,938 ft) and is located in Karnataka, India.
• The world's highest station above ground level (not above sea level) is Smith–Ninth Streets subway station in New York City.
• Coney Island – Stillwell Avenue in New York City is the world's largest elevated terminal with 8 tracks and 4 island platforms.
• Shanghai South railway station, opened in June 2006, has the world's largest circular transparent roof.
• Penn Station is the busiest train station in the Western hemisphere serving more than 430,000 commuter passengers a day.

For strings, flute, english horn, bassoon, contra bassoon, trumpet, trombone, station sound samples, and percussion

Lingering Echoes - The Station

Keep running
You’ll never know
No you never
You never
Never
You’ll never know 
At all
Can’t you see
Can’t you feel
Let it go
Let it be
Let it go
Let it be
It’s like were crumbling down
It’s like the rooms spinning round
It’s like the worlds burning down
It’s like the whole things mad
It’s like the walls are all sad
Try to understand
Try to understand
To know somehow
Keep running
You’ll never know
No you’ll never
You never
Never
You’ll never know 
At all

You'll Never Know

Damage
============

Once again I was lucky to coincide with Peter in a new musical project.

I had a draft project for the end of the year, but everything was precipitated by an accident.

The things that we take for granted, those that include our automatic pilot of life, or as Peter wonderfully defines in the publication of this same song on his page, simply stop working and go into manual mode. There our clumsiness seems to increase with the fear of making a mistake and its consequences.

I must thank Peter for his wonderful lyrics, and for his beautiful and enveloping message that, through music, can travel hundreds or thousands of kilometers to arrive as a message of help to whoever needs it... in this case, to myself.

Listen to this same version and rate it, if you like it, also on your page.

Lyrics.

Damage

Smack out of the blue
Right out of nowhere, knocked out of true
Time to re-adjust
The confidence I used to trust.
I'm seeking damage limitation
In healing rehabilitation.
Fix the pieces back in place
Reassemble my time and space

Tripped out of the norm
Try to stay planted throughout this storm
I'm slowly climbing back
Step by step, get back on track.
I'm seeking damage mitigation
In healing rehabilitation.
The mental plastic surgeon's knife
Repairs the fabric of my life.

Looking good from here
Banished all the doubts and fears
I'm back in full control
Stronger still I'm ready to roll.
Completed damage restoration
Through healing rehabilitation
With family love I'm on my way
Looking forward day by day.

Lingering Echoes – The City Centre
July 2023
Duration: 2:50
Fascinating sonic places that provoke lingering memories. 
Photo of downtown New York City  
Special thanks to John-Marc Ventimiglia @john-marc-ventimiglia for his highly valued musical input and for creating the “The City Centre ” sound library used to compose this piece.

The city centre, often busy and vibrant,  is the area of a city where commerce, entertainment, shopping, and political power are concentrated. The term is commonly used in many English-speaking countries and has direct equivalents in many other languages. However, noticeably, in the United States, the term "downtown" is commonly used to denote a city centre, and in Canada the terms "city centre" and "downtown" are used interchangeably. The first citation for "down town" or "downtown" dates to 1770, in reference to the center of Boston. Some have posited that the term "downtown" was coined in New York City, where it was in use by the 1830s to refer to the original town at the southern tip of the island of Manhattan. During the late 19th century, the term was gradually adopted by cities across the United States and Canada to refer to the historical core of the city, which was most often the same as the commercial heart of the city.  In many metropolitan areas, the city centre or downtown, is marked by a cluster of tall buildings, cultural institutions and the convergence of rail transit and bus lines. 

For soprano sax, tenor sax, baritone sax. oboe, heckelphone, clarinet, xylophone, marimba, piano, bassoon, contra bassoon, city sound samples and percussion.

Swept Away

It’s all illusion
I see that now
Why did I fight so hard?
So much power 
It wears a human face
Maybe there won’t be a fight
Don’t kid yourself old man
There’s always a fight
Dying is not a tragedy
Forgetting to live is the tragedy
What were we taking about again?...Oh yeah…
We are the machines that bleed
The organizing principle
Looking for the sculpture in the stone
Looking for the sculpture in the stone
Looking for the sculpture in the stone
We are the machines that bleed
Looking for the sculpture in the stone

Looking For The Sculpture In The Stone

I have always admired music, of diverse styles. Like most of us, I have tried learning to play a few instruments at a basic level in my teenage. But it is only now, in the 21st century, that modern software allows anyone to fool around being the composer, the designer of a whole composition, simpler or more complex, organising together the parts of the various instruments - and to hear the results of this experimentation or inspiration instantly! That is how I have recently begun enjoying the distraction of attempts at composing during my leisure, discovering an amazing dimension of life, and art, perhaps the most intangible, heightening and hypnotising one, and the closest to the soul... (21 August 2017) ... Forgot to mention: music is for sharing - that's why we are all here! (4 September 2017)
