Audio Excerpts of note

A spontaneous piano piece
© 2010 David Hollandsworth

Early Morning Mist

The incantatory slow movement of Hendrik Hofmeyr's Clarinet Sonata is in ternary form. The A section is based on a widely arched theme announced by the clarinet. The brief middle section (Poco più mosso) is more expressive in character and ends with a canonic cadenza for the two instruments, which leads to an abbreviated recapitulation of the A section, but now with canonic imitation by the piano. In the coda elements of both themes are fused into a new melody, which is again echoed by the piano.

Sonata For Clarinet And Piano (Hofmeyr) - Becky Stelzner, Jose Dias [2]

The album was designed as an end to end connecting experience especially for those who often feel restless, difficult to stay relax, calm, content.

It is divided into 6 progressive pieces to get into a deeper journey with yourself. All you have to do during this experience is let go. The music is meant to touch you deeply, especially to get in touch with any negative emotions and release them out. 

We can not be truly relaxed and focused if we have negative or dark emotions within ourselves, and most of the time we may not even know they even exist. The album is designed to get in touch with that side and observe it, not be overwhelmed by fear but instead embrace it, release it and let it go. 

The first piece, “Into The Yin” is meant to prepare ourselves to get into this journey and slowly relax.

The second piece “Connecting” will progressively induce a state of deeper connection with our inner self.

The 3rd piece “Contemplating” will help us start observing our inner emotions, feel and explore what is within you.

Pieces 4 to 6 will be released soon!

Beautiful As A Memory

Blessed Messenger   | 10 Aug |

فَإن شِئتَ أَن تَحيا سَعيدًا فَمُت بِهِ
شَهيدًا وإلاّ فالغرامُ لهُ أهلُ 
فَمن لم يَمتْ في حبّهُ لم يَعش بهِ
ودون اجتناءِ النّحل ما جنتِ النحل
وقُل لقتيلِ الحبّ وَفّيتَ حقّه
وللمُدعي هَيهَاتِ ما الكَحلُ الكَحْل.

فَمن لم يَمتْ في حبّهُ لم يَعش بهِ.
