A beautiful and very moving piece, CJC. ♡

beautiful and emotive piece, Chris ♥♥

Very beautiful song with a unique timing. Full of blooms and bumblebees...

Sometimes it does take twenty years to get a piece where we'd like it to be.  You're not alone in this.  Beautiful piano tribute.

A very special piece. The themes melt nicely one into the other. And great variations around the parts when they are repeated

Piano and arrangement........Philip/Classical Glass (@classicalglass-1)
Lyric and voice ....Paolo Pieraccini / MayaDog

Philip did yet another masterpiece with his piano and I was inspired to write and sing a love song ... a poignant love

Moonlit night
I return and begin to write
a long letter

:D

I begin to write a long letter [naviarhaiku447]

This song is dedicated to my two nieces who sadly lost their mother back in 1999. In Cherry’s last few weeks, we regularly visited her and on one occasion I sat at the piano and came up with a few chords that have always remained with me and reminded me of that sad time. It has taken more than twenty years to get it to a point that I am happy with the song and so, at last here it is. 

It has been named “Cherry Blossom” but it could have been named “Why Did You Have to Leave Us Way too Soon” words that I hear in the melody, but I felt that was too long for a title, so compromised and made it a sub-title. I hope you enjoy the final recording.

„Der Atem des Nebels“ Atmender Nebel  (16.11.2022 ) 


In früher Morgendämmerung atmet die Erde auf. Die ersten Sonnenstrahlen durchdringen die Wolken. 
Nebelschwaden bedecken wie ein feines samtiges Tuch die Felder, Wälder und Täler.
Die Erde erwacht. Sie ruft den Wind auf das der Nebel langsam davon schwebt und die Landschaften freigibt.

Zart, flüsternd schwebt der letzte Hauch des Nebels dahin und ein neuer Tag entfaltet sich in ganzer Pracht.

Ein musikalisches Landschaftspoem.

Vielen Dank für Eure geschätzte Aufmerksamkeit.

" Breathing Fog” “The Breath of the Mist"  (2022-11-16)


The earth breathes a sigh of relief in the early dawn. The first rays of sunshine penetrate the clouds.
Wafts of fog cover the fields, forests and valleys like a fine velvety cloth.
The earth awakens. She calls on the wind that the fog slowly floats away and reveals the landscapes.

Soft, whispering, the last breath of the mist floats away and a new day unfolds in all its glory 

A musical landscape poem.

Thank you for your valued attention.

I was going down to Glencoe           When I saw an owl settle on a branch                                                                                               So I sat down for a while                  To admire what surrounded me                                                                               
And I saw what I missed so much     Since I moved to Philadelphia                                                                                                         The sound of the wind in the trees   And the soft runoff of rivers                                                                                                                        ...                                                                                                                                                          I kept holding on                                                                                                                          Because I knew that one day I'll be back again                                                                                 In the land of my childhood                                                                                                             The place I feel like home                                                                                                                      ...                                                                                                                                                           I was on the edge of Glory    And everything was smiling to me                                                                           
But the only thing I saw in my dreams                                                                                           Was the greenery and beauty of Scotland                                                                                           I was missing the freshness of mornings                                                                                       And the rain that was falling almost all the time                                                                              The mystery and depths of Lochs       And relaxed rythm of life                                                                                                                        ...    I kept holding on  ...                                                                                                                 And every night             I wished I could open                                                                                                                      The door of my favorite pub       And raise my glass with friends                                                                                   ...  I kept holding on ...                                                                                                                    Now I'm going down to Glencoe                                                                                                    And it's not a dream anymore

Going Down To Glencoe ☘️  ( MoïRa - prod pb )

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
