Wonderful composition and performance! Very nice track!

Very cool retro sound to begin with, and I like how it opens up two thirds through!

Lyrics: Goethe

Lynceus, The Warder (Faust II, Goethe)

For seeing i’m born, for watching employed
To the tower i’m sworn, while the world i enjoy
I gaze at the far, i stare at the near
To the moon and the stars, the forest and deer

The eternally lovely adorement i view
And as it delights me, i delight myself too
You fortunate eyes, all you’ve seen there
Let it be as it may, yet it was so fair

I’m not positioned here on high
Just for my own enjoyment
What horror meant to terrify
Threatens from the firmament
I see sparks of fire gushing through
The lindens double night
Fanned by the wind’s rushing
Ever stronger goes the light

Ah! Within the hut is burning
Damp and mossy though it stands
Swift help, inthis direction turning
Is needed, yet no aid’s to hand
Ah! The pious old couple
so carefull ever of the fire
Made a prey to smoke to stifle
On this dreadful pyre

The flame burns on, glowing red
It’s now a black mossy pile
If only those good folks were rescued
From those fires of hell run wild

A bright flung of lightning heaps
Through the branches, through the leaves
Breaking, snapping, catching swiftly
With the branches flickered glow
Why have i such powers to see?
Why are mine the eyes to know?

The little chapel now collapses
With the falling branches weight
Already with bright, snakelike flashes
The treetops gripped meet their fate
Glowing crimson to the hollow roots
The trunks now burn with ease

What used to please my eyes below
Has vanished with the centuries…

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, 1832

The "Croisière du monde", our collaborative album in progress with Roberto B (@user-55822457 and @robertoiib) that focuses on film music but with much variation and cross-genre influences, continues today with its 6th track, "Soleil rouge" - or, in English translation, "Red Sun". We hope you'll enjoy it!

The track was created in collaboration on 29 October 2021 (initial mix and recording in GarageBand and Logic Pro by Alex M), 30 October 2021 (subsequent additions, mix and recording in MAGIX by Roberto B),  and 31 October 2021 (final mix in Logic Pro by Alex M), and posted on SC on 6 November 2021 (by Alex M).

The artwork cover for the album and all its constituent tracks was designed and implemented by Alex M on 29 June 2021 (in Tayasui Sketch in Mac OS), cropped by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 30 June 2021, and annotated with text by Alex M (in Mac OS Preview) on 2 October 2021 - in coordination and agreement with Roberto B.

Thank you so much, Roberto - for the beautiful musical ideas that inspire again our new collaborations in this ongoing "musique de film" - and more - album, "Croisière du monde"!

Duration: 8:08 minutes

Ein Gedicht von Hermann Hesse, vom Meister selbst gelesen, hat mich zu dem Titel inspiriert und der Nebel draußen.

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)
