The sensitive relationship is expressed very well. A really beautiful piece, Chris! ❤ It enlightened my day once again🤗

Thank you so much for those kind words, much appreciated

Another beautiful piece with  a lovely performance.

Lovely progression, wholly romantic, graceful, balletic. I am inclined to sweep my arms and glide my feet to follow the beat. Still spinning and now bowing at the end. Bravo.

Particularly proud of this one, expecially how the dynamics turned out.

And in the End, She Loves You So

Charlie Watts was one classy drummer. 

Hey let him follow you down
Way underground wind and he's bound
Bound to follow you down
Just a dead beat right off the street
Bound to follow you down
Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos
And dressing rooms filled with parasites
On stage the band has got problems
They're a bag of nerves on first nights
He ain't tied down to no home town
Yeah, and he thought he was wreckless
You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad
Yeah, and the guitar player gets restless
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Let it steal your heart away
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Joe's got a cough, sounds kind a rough
Yeah, and the codeine to fix it
Doctor prescribes, drug store supplies
Who's gonna help him to kick it
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Let it steal your heart away
Let it steal your heart away
And his coat is torn and frayed
It's seen much better days
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays
Just as long as the guitar plays

Rising From The Ashes Part I

Thanks to David Dunham for allowing me to revisit his piece originally issued three years ago. It is always a privilege as well as a pleasure.  Visit David's page to hear more of his eloquent and peaceful music. @david-dunhamuser589535203

Don't Say Goodbye with David Dunham, guitar

New song from David Cooper and Glen Granthem.

Glen sent me a new poem he had written and asked me to add music to it.

I added instrumentation and melody/vocals and produced the song.

Hope you like what you're hearing and many thanks for listening.

Watch the video Glen created for this song:

Verse 1

This raging river flows
Like a dream that no one knows
I look down the path I chose
And watch where the story goes

Verse 2

I reap the seeds I've sewn
The sun flower climbs and grows
Consumes the highs and lows
Then it leaves a single rose

Chorus 1

The canyons grand in my eyes
Over head the eagle flies
A wilderness that reaches far and wide
Embraced I see our last goodbye

Verse 3

I recall the white beach sand
Now I live on barren land
So afraid the past will stand
A single rose in one hand

Verse 4

Down below the people chase 
All the things they can't erase
It leaves such a bitter taste
What we had I cannot face

Chorus 2

Canyons grand in my eyes
Over head the eagle flies
Forests reach out for the sky
The single rose begins to die

Outro

The Canyons grand in my eyes
The eagles born to Fly
The Canyons grand in my eyes 
Over head the eagle flies

Canyons Grand In My Eyes (Cooper/Granthem Collaboration)

Talking

'Give everything I've got. Give everything.  All the time.  It's great fun. And it is liberating. Absolutely liberating.' Dr. Maya Angelou. 

I will not limit myself to conform, but will be authentic and radically honest in sharing my thoughts and experiences and desires.  I will remain true to my music and to what lies deep within my heart and spirit.  I will be open and more open and then again, more open...to give everything...to be totally present in every moment, so I can give everything I've got...

Thanks JCJCJC for creating this extraordinary energy within me that germinated this music.

Give Everything

Waves

Nocturnes Op.10 No.17

In my early years I took piano lessons, regretfully I stopped them in my teens. I've always had a piano in the house and over the years have composed a number of songs (without words). What’s important to me is the melodic nature of the pieces and I wanted to share them with others. The origins of the music are probably influenced by my early classical lessons, Chopin and Schubert to name a couple. I love Liszt’s Hungarian and Rachmaninoff’s Russian styles but sadly my technical ability hampers the inclusion of their techniques.
Today’s home recording software allows many opportunities to develop compositions using other instruments to compliment the piano however, using the software has been a challenge, trying to get the “right” sound for the piano has been the most difficult part of the process. I’m slowly learning and will probably remix some of my current tracks as my experience grows.
Once I have recorded my heritage pieces, I plan to write a new selection of music predominantly piano but also experimenting with more or different instruments, watch this space!
Thank you for listening and commenting on my compositions and for the reposts, please don’t hesitate to offer constructive criticism, it could speed up the learning process.
Best Wishes,
Chris Cummins

And in the End, She Loves You So
