L'Adieu au Jour

The star..Antares is visible in the sky all night in May of each year, when she is is at opposition to the Sun. At this time, Antares rises at dusk and sets at dawn. For approximately two to three weeks on either side of November 30, Antares is not visible in the night sky, because it is in near conjunction with the Sun...This song tries to convey a sense of peace yet of our mortality. Antares has a particular importance for me, a feeling of fragility but also of the awakening of our spirit...

And the Lyrics... 
------
A merry dance
Down in the valley, a village is asleep!
Bathed in moonlight there runs a pearly stream…
But see the farmer, see the butcher, see the baker and his wife,
They all take life too seriously!
Early in the morning they drag the kids to school!
So speaks the father: my son will be no fool
But often in the night, the children start to cry.
Peter, Cathy, Paul and Anne,
Why dear children, why so glum?
“This goes against the code of witches and wizardry!”
We believe in laughter and children should be happy!
I’m the witch of morning dew and this is what I do:
Eye of a newt, a tooth of a troll,
A hair on the neck of a golden hyena
Sing dear cauldron sing…
Fumes of this secret potion float on a magic wing!
“Giggle, wriggle, throw your sting!
Cackle, rattle, now begin!
Round and round the children find!
Let the laughter seek and bind!
Mingle, jingle, cauldron boil!
Now will the merry dance begin!
Let the children start to grin!
I shall set them free!
Open the windows and night will come in
Breathe deeply children! The fun will begin!
Soothing your sorrow and fusing a light!
Making each morning challenge each night!
Chasing the sadness right out of sight!
Shush! YES!
Hear how the children laugh!
Oh! What a witch am I!
I did it!
Now life is dawning, laughter each morning!
No one can ever stop you! This is your only chance!
No one will ever mock you! Come to this merry dance! Dance! Dance!

Diana Mavroleon in conversation with Annemarie Borg 12 May 
"Annemarie Borg's work is eclectic in that it traverses both mixed media and the individual/separate forms of music, words, poetry, sounds and the visual arts. As Founder of the ‘Antara Project’ Borg uses art forms as tools to deal with her main concerns: the fundamental changes in social and cultural environments and how these affect the present day and generations to come. “In today's world we have created our own challenge, are we now up to the task of facing it? In this task what is the part Artists can assume?” (AMB). Antara aims to build a louder voice through Art and will result in a compilation album and a day conference/performance later this year. Borg’s ‘live’ shows range from classical repertoire to experimental music with organic sound-scapes, electronica, improvisation, often in collaboration with other musicians...
Resurgence Magazine Dec 2012 Jan 2013: review by Lorna Howarth
"Antara is a fresh and innovative project that curates Art as if the future matters. "For a future worth living, we must invest in creativity now" says Annemarie. (the full interview and review is available on my website and at Resurgence.org)
 
Her current projects include: “Still Motion” "Cameos" "perceptions" "Kantele" and "Antara/YWhales"-a mix of  live performances started in Spring 2012 in London (Classical meets Ambient, Jazz and Electronic with improvisations on canvases of atmospheric tones and moods) and recording projects. Two new album released in July 2013. Born in Paris, with a French/Swedish background, Borg was a child musician who went on to study Business and International Law in Paris, and Music, Opera, Performance and Acting in London. www.annemarieborg.com  http://antara-project.com/ www.informal4u.com  

Antara Project (founded by Annemarie Borg in 2010) The first meeting of the Antara group of artists took place on 15 of February 2011 in London West End.
