L'Adieu au Jour

©AnnemarieBorg 
This track was originally 1812 but I prefer this newer version and mix. 
Something about remembrance/loss and hope...
"But time is less and time is more
And the confusion is our path
For there is light in all this darkness
And death will bring us to the core
To feel the strength within the weakness
To lay our soul upon the shore"

Lest we forget

This high quality recording was made on the afternoon of Feb. 24, 2011 during Week 4 of the Conscious Breath Adventures 2011 Silver Bank humpback whale season. On this day we were able to find and swim with a singing humpback whale. Our guests were in the water literally swimming in the music as they watched, and I was able to drift nearby in the tender while dangling our hydrophone in the water (www.AquarianAudio.com). At times the hydrophone was within fifty feet of the singer, so the sound quality is excellent. To truly appreciate this recording, it should be listened to through an amplified stereo system, not just through computer speakers, then the nuances of the song really shine through. Also, be sure to play it for your pets! I have been receiving numerous reports of domestic animals reacting strongly to recordings of humpback whale songs. I was also able to capture the full length song in a twenty one minute recording, but will have to upload it after the season is over when time and internet bandwidth will permit. Visit www.ConsciousBreathAdventures.com to learn more about the humpback whales of the Silver Bank


A Humpback Virtuoso

A day of sky
Every thing moves
Nothing stays the same
Flowing to evening
Trusting endlessly

Aglow and trembling
Unveiling what we feel
Drowning and shivering
In a day of sky

Clouds unrolling
Feathering the sky
Quietly spinning
In a place of forgetting

Radiant satin beam
Birds flying on a dream
A mist of memories
And we are free...

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...
