Calm Sea

Old frozen scenes
where daylight breathes
and fades away
As they roam and seek
how it feels unreal
left here today

Gone, the past has gone
forever gone
As hope, keeps holding on
keeps holding on

Old echoed dreams
they crawl and weave
then fade away
Not much left to believe
as the past it creaks
here today

Frozen Scenes

The intention of this piece: a roller coaster for your brain, using variation in arpeggio patterns as the primary musical device to evoke wheels in motion as well as the twists and turns. This piece is completely arpeggiated (no simultaneously struck notes), and the harmonies created through sustain are relatively noncommittal (lots of suspended chords to keep the listener feeling "suspended"), and lots of note spacing to break up the melody, leaving the listener to hone in on the arpeggio patterns as the focal point; the song invites the listener in with a long ascending arpeggio followed by a descending arpeggio, then a sequence of ascending arpeggios with descending root notes evokes the motion of a wheels (oscillation around a monotonic center of mass) before more complex patterns are introduced.  

Mathematical feature of this piece: one way to quantify the complexity in arpeggio patterns is to look at possible permutation patterns that appear in consecutive strings of notes.  Taking a consecutive string of distinct notes and ordering them according to pitch, one can assign a permutation.  All of the 24 permutations of size 4 are realized at least once in this song.  This explains the song art which depicts the Cayley diagram for the permutation group of size four.

This is one about the election. The first line, I heard a lot on the news and talk shows right after the outcome, reassuring worried people that our country will make it through. I am not convinced we will, either way, it’s going to be a totally different America after these 4 years.

This song seemed a little over the top, so I went ahead and put in a gospel choir and a searing guitar lead just to make sure lol.

Sorry I haven't been on SC very much lately, I'm learning a new software app for my paying job and it is not making life easier, like I thought it would. I will be back soon!

And please pardon the vocals

I believe we’ll be okay
We’ll win this fight another day
Still, I would do it all again, because right is on our side,
And the truth can turn the tide
 
When kindness wins over greed
 It’s true that love is all you need
But If fear rules your life, your humanity will leave you
And then it’s hard to see the light
   
It seems to me // we’re all in this together
Money never will define a person's worth
And I realize, that nothing lasts forever
But we were meant to be good stewards of the Earth

I believe in you
And I hope that you believe in me, too
You  see, love has not died
It is lost somewhere inside
Our  spark will  bring it new life
So don’t give up, neither will I
Be who you        are and never hide 
If we raise our voices to the sky 
Love will not die!

We'll Be Okay

A diminutive woman in her 7th decade, Laurie is a dynamo of personality and energy living an outsized life as she still works, loves to travel, and when home, playing in our church band as a guitarist and sharing music as a multi-instrumentalist.  She is also a personal hero in how she powered through chemo, invasive surgery, then radiation to arrest the progress of a rare cancer.  She would tell you it was by the Grace of God, but I would quickly add He worked in concert with her faith and "joie de vivre" of which she has an abundance.  Not knowing what to give her for her birthday and Christmas (a month apart), I gave her a song with her band nickname as the title.  For you, "Laurie Lou" my dear friend, guitar sister, and bandmate:)

A small tribute to Wolfgang Palm! I didn't really put much effort into the composition and to be honest I composed it in a hurry! I didn't touch the oscillators at all and there was no change in frequency. The sound was made with the random function of this excellent virtual synth! Next time I'm going to try harder with my limited musical knowledge!

LYRICS
I keep dreaming these sweet dreams
I make them last all night
This time it could be so special
I couldn't take my eyes off you
Keep dreaming these sweet dreams of you

And I know we've just met 
And I could be wrong
I can still taste your cinnamon lipstick
Never thought I'd fall in this quick
I keep dreaming those sweet dreams of you

Sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you

Instrumental

Keep dreaming these sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you

You stole my breath when I first saw you
Now all I want to do is hold you
I've never known a love like this
The magic of our first kiss
And I keep dreaming those sweet dreams of you

Sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you

Keep dreaming these sweet dreams
Make them last all night
This time it could be so special
I couldn't take my eyes off you
Keep dreaming these sweet dreams of you

Sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you
Sweet dreams of you
