Seldom does a day go by but I return, at some stage, to Bach. I recall the magic of first hearing the D minor Chaconne, the glorious opening mvt of Cantata 140, the slow mvt of the double violin concerto... the opening Arioso of Cantata BWV 156, to which I owe the inspiration for this particular little offering.

I've never subscribed to the notion that Bach's music is more cerebral, less emotionally charged than the music of later generations. Despite its transformation into a contemporary love song I'll be delighted if something of the romance and warmth of Bach's original shines through here. The final section of the song resorts to a simple vocalise elaboration of the Arioso melody. A heartfelt tribute to the composer who, more than any other, set me on a musical journey (from classical roots to folk, rock, jazz, fusion... and back) that still, so many years later, feels like it's only just begun.

A very special vote of thanks to the many others who've contributed to this recording, including:
Carolina de la Muela (vocals); Nicholas Ojeda (Dble Bass). Strings - Nightsongs Studio Strings. And not least, to Simon Gibson down at Abbey Road Studios for his customary prowess in the final mastering.

Some songs are just meant to be.  In the earliest days of this song's creation, I came to a juncture that was make or break.  Stepping back, giving it some distance, molding it a bit more, it became a keeper, and one that was well received in its first posting over two years ago.  Debbie added her magic a year ago and its reception and audience grew even more.  Now Bix has added his superb vocal talent to take the song to even greater heights.  Have a listen and fly with us as the angels bear us up on their wings.  Hear more of Bix's great songs @user-432405235-236877019

FLY (HE WILL LIFT YOU UP)
Music: David Dunham/Debra Buesking
Lyrics: Bix Bixler
Aaaah….fly with me
Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song

He will lift you up
To rise with Him
On high
And drink His cup
Of love….

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song

He will lift you up
To rise with Him
On high
And drink His cup
Of love…..

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

We’ll fly……
To meet Him
In the air
And sing
The angel’s song

Let the angels
Bear you up
To meet Him
When He comes

Hear the angels
Hear them singing
God’s celestial song…

Blazing comet.

The season of Thanksgiving (already enjoyed in Canada)is upon the US. And Christmas approaching,right on the heels of these family gatherings. In the midst of it all, wars are ongoing, and all the while hatred soars. What's a helpful message in the midst of all that? Hold On (To Someone)...onto someone, not something. Time to share some hugs.
Hold On (to someone)

    The best prediction for the future is the past
    For the further back you look
    The further forward that you see
    Carpe diem … to seize the day, no need to pray
    Far beyond the pale, a little faith will conquer all your fears
    Make love with your words before the end
    For the further back you look
    The further forward you will see
    I’ve seen… the end
    When all… that is left
    I’ve seen…the end
    When all... that is left
    Is to hold… onto someone
    (Lead Break)
    The best prediction for the future is the past
    For the further back you look
    The further forward that you see
    I’ve seen…the end
    When all that is left
    Is to hold onto someone
    Hold onto someone

Lost In Space

Hey everyone. 2024 is coming. I sincerely hope that it will be a good year for everyone. I uploaded my performance of this song here because I wanted my friends to know that the gut strings on my electric acoustic guitar have finally calmed down. The strings have become accustomed to the guitar and I no longer hear any squeaks. Do not you think so? 

I chose this song because it's one of the songs I always play when tuning my guitar. Just set the capo on the 7th fret and play a simple chord like D, G, A7 or D, G, E and you're done. I'm a beginner when it comes to nylon string guitars, so this would be the perfect song for me to try out. I would like all of you who are practicing guitar to take this opportunity to master it. Also, I recently learned that this work, one of The Beatles' works, became the most listened to song of The Beatles' works on Spotify in 2021. It's a work that is popular all over the world. 

This is George Harrison's work. I hope that the serious wars and conflicts currently occurring will end as soon as possible. And, as George Harrison sings in this work, I hope that the day will come soon when we can all sing, `

Here comes the sun, do-do-do
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right
Little darling, it’s been a long, cold, lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun, do-do-do
Here comes the sun, and I say
It’s all right

When I listened to the recorded version myself, I was surprised at how simple it was, with no drums or bass, just a nylon string guitar solo. Should I play it again later with a pick and re-record it, or should I play it very slowly and re-record it, or should I change the position of the capo tasto and change the key of the performance? I had a lot of hesitation, but I decided to leave it as is, thinking that this was a record of me practicing to get used to playing the nylon string guitar and sharing it with you all. In other words, rather than getting confused at this stage, if you could sing along with this recording out loud, the weakness of this recording being too simple and lonely would be quickly overcome. I realized that it would be better to move on to the next step as soon as possible. So, I started thinking that my next step would be to try playing this nylon string guitar along with someone's amazing vocals on SoundCloud.

Here Comes The Sun - The Beatles cover (SOLO) with a gut-string guitar

Seagull surprised me with this lovely song as a gift for my 70th birthday, featuring his playing on acoustic guitar, and likening our friendship and musical comradery to a "walk in the morning dew".  I was beyond honored:)  Then the thought occurred to him, "what if Ed, Dan, Peter, and David joined me on my walk?"  Peter's words set the stage comparing our friendship (and lasting friendship in general) to fine gold "hewn from so much more than mere common ground"  Ed's gorgeous electric guitar defines the melody, Dan's synths and Clara's vocals add depth and emotion, and I get to decorate an already beautiful production in the left and right channels.  It is now a magnificent 70th birthday gift, enriched by my musical bond and friendship with these fine artists, and one I want to share with you dear listener.  Be blessed as you walk with us "in the morning dew":)

Seagull has also created a lovely video to celebrate our walk together and invite you to join us there: www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDbapIXADdg
Peter's introductory poem:
A tempered bond of ether gold forged from trust in seeming kin
Blenched of ore hewn from so much more than mere common ground
Metallicised, a like of kind that cannot tarnish, ne’er to rust, it’s strength, atomic, set within
And so my grateful thoughts are due, my friend, to you, as one where empathy is ever found
To crystallise a state of mind as if from walks in morning dew as bright new days begin.

    I’M STUCK IN THE STRAITS

                         IN THE GUTTER I’LL BE  
                LOOKING FOR THE LOST PARTS OF ME

The Lost Parts of Me

A song about breath taking love...or is it a breath too far?
Video link here - https://youtu.be/JP1vJqyqbXA

Lyrics
You’ve been throwing words away like confetti on a grave
cos when you had a chance to wait but instead you got laid
now you’re so low and so down with no smile for a frown
but still Jumping up and down to stop the world spinning around

Breathe
Breathe
Breathe
Breathe through me

You take your pills for your pain and drank hope for your pleasure
keep faking smiles in the rain cos no one can measure
all the bills in your hands and full holes in your pockets
while the lost friends you owned won’t let you stop it

Breathe
Breathe
Breathe
Breathe through me
Breathe through me
Breathe through me
Breathe through me

You swear yesterday’s plans are just tomorrows new regrets
and that worthless fools words get too easily spent
our best intentions have flown left no nest to be grown
cos you can’t teach an old dog to get blood from a stone

Breathe
Breathe
Breathe
Breathe through me
Breathe through me
Breathe through me
Breathe…Just breathe
Breathe…please breathe
Breathe…
Breathe…Just breathe
Breathe…please breathe
Breathe…
Breathe…Just breathe
Breathe…please breathe
Breathe…breathe through me
Breathe…breathe through me
Breathe…just through me
Breathe…only through me
Breathe…breathe through me


Breathe through me (condensation compensation)

Lyrics:-
There's a gentle breeze
Blowing around me
I can feel it in
The things that people say today

Increasing every week
In the things I see
In the folks who start
Questioning reality

We are in
The calm before the storm
Here come the winds of change
To Take over everything

Composer enquiries: info@andrewleefarquhar.com

Andrew Lee Farquhar is a multi-instrumentalist and producer from the UK. His compositions often feature strings and piano, even sometimes with electronics and ambient textures.

Neoclassical Contemporary Crossover Composer  / Piano Artist:

Farquhar's solo piano music without words, evokes a minimalist emotional-world, yet in other ways neutral, melancholic, and desirable. A soundscape full of blurry images of the past; of long forgotten memories and characters from a yesteryear; of times gone by and ever-looping addictive piano phrasing, of beautiful melodies from far-away-destinations, far-away-waters, far-away-skies, far-away-landscapes. 

Born in Northern England, he spent years studying piano, developing a minimalist, modern classical repertoire. He is a highly creative piano artist with a distinct flair in the neoclassical minimalist genre stratosphere.
