Music is about feeling & this has lots of it. Sounds great.

Almost reminded me of the film, titanic, when they keep playing, as they’re about to drown. Awesome

Magic moment when listening to this wonderful music !

That sounds fantastic straight out of you, so much emotion, so real! Bravo!

Wow 🤗 great depth of feeling ..simply exquisite 🤗

I woke up kinda late
Brushed the dust off my fedora
Justice, she can never wait
Roll out of bed and shuffle through the door
Even secret agents get the blues

Another day, another dance
Another man to figure out
Coincidence or happenstance?
A criminal? A gadabout?
Even secret agents get the blues
Thinking of you

You did the crime
You do the time

Sorrow, it’s my favorite meal
Eat it up with eggs and coffee
Pictures in the big murder book
Of cold hard evidence you brought me

Even secret agents get the blues
Even secret agents get the blues

Even Secret Agents Get The Blues (with Janine Levinson)

"Up in the Gallery" (German: "Auf der Galerie") is a short piece of fiction written by Franz Kafka. It was created between November 1916 and February 1917 and published in the collection „Ein Landarzt“ (A Country Doctor) in 1919. The story offers two versions of a scene in which a young man watches a circus ringmaster and a woman on horseback. (Wikipedia)

The picture shows a section of: At The Circus Fernando, The Rider
by Henri Toulouse-Lautrec (1888)

Public domain translation by Ian Johnston (November 2003)                     


Up in the Gallery

If some frail tubercular lady circus rider 
were to be driven in circles around and around 
the arena for months and months 
without interruption 
in front of a tireless public 
on a swaying horse 
by a merciless whip-wielding 
master of ceremonies, 
spinning on the horse, 
throwing kisses and swaying at the waist, 
and if this performance, 
amid the incessant roar 
of the orchestra and the ventilators, 
were to continue into 
the ever-expanding, gray future, 
accompanied by applause, 
which died down and then swelled up again, 
from hands which were really steam hammers, 
perhaps then a young visitor to the gallery 
might rush down the long stair case 
through all the levels, 
burst into the ring, and cry “Stop!” 
through the fanfares 
of the constantly adjusting orchestra.


But since things are not like that,
(Since things are not like that…rep.)         

since a beautiful woman, in white and red, 
flies in through curtains 
which proud men in livery open in front of her, 
since the director, 
devotedly seeking her eyes, 
breathes in her direction, 
behaving like an animal, and, as a precaution, 
lifts her up on the dapple-gray horse, 
as if she were his grand daughter, 
the one he loved more 
than anything else,
as she starts a dangerous journey, 
but he cannot decide to give the signal with his whip 
and finally, 
controlling himself, gives it a crack, 
runs right beside the horse with his mouth open, 
follows the rider's leaps with a sharp gaze, 
hardly capable of comprehending her skill, 
tries to warn her by calling out in English, 
furiously castigating the grooms holding hoops, 
telling them to pay the most scrupulous attention, 
and begs the orchestra, with upraised arms,
to be quiet before the great jump, 
finally lifts the small woman down from the trembling horse, 
kisses her on both cheeks, 
considers no public tribute adequate, 
while she herself, leaning on him, 
high on the tips of her toes, 
with dust swirling around her, 
arms outstretched and head thrown back, 
wants to share her luck with the entire circus—
since this is how things are, 
the visitor to the gallery puts his face on the railing and, 
sinking into the final march as if into a difficult dream, weeps, 
without realizing it.  (rep.)

“Nacht Traum” 

Dies ist die Fortsetzung in loser Folge von Kompositionen meines Cello Zyklus mit dem Titel „Charisma Cellos“.

Begonnen habe ich mit den Kompositionen „Tagtraum“ 
https://soundcloud.com/cloppenburg-music/daydream

sowie „Flüsternde Stille“
https://soundcloud.com/cloppenburg-music/wispering-silents


Dieses kleine Cellostück  „Nacht Traum“ inspirierte mich vor dem Moment des Einschlafens wo das Unterbewusstsein erwacht und mich in den Schlaf fallen lässt. 
Über irgend etwas vermag ich gerade noch nachzudenken und dann kommen die Träume der Nacht an die ich mich vielleicht manchmal noch erinnern kann.  
Aber, die meisten Träume sind verlorene Träume. 
Manchmal entstehen aber daraus musikalische Ideen wie diese kleine Cello-Suite.

Danke für Eure geschätzte Aufmerksamkeit.

“Night Dream”

This is the continuation in a loose sequence of compositions from my cello cycle entitled "Charisma Cellos".

I started with the compositions "Tagtraum"
https://soundcloud.com/bj-rn-cloppenburg/daydream

and "Whispering Silence"
https://soundcloud.com/bj-rn-cloppenburg/wispering-silents


This little cello piece "Night Dream" inspired me before the moment of falling asleep where the subconscious wakes up and lets me fall asleep.
I can just about think about something and then come the dreams of the night that I can sometimes still remember.
But, most dreams are lost dreams.
Sometimes, however, musical ideas emerge from this, such as this little cello suite.

Thank you for your valued attention.

Fiesta Macabra  (Testi di Anam Hermit)

Method: It‘s complex. 
Narration: Just think of Paris, millenia later.
Image: Another (altered) section of the original Tiny Inclusions illustration. Yes, I guess 'blue' might have been seen in ancient Greece as well.

poem / copyright jo richter:
(as published in: Tiny Inclusions, in: Auslegpapier)

Out of the blue
he is back, has returned.
It is the Klein kind of blue,
to be precise. He must have
stared at the picture for hours.
.
The walls reek of bliss.
His own smell carries that stink.
Long before he had realized it,
his senses had learned
to abhor beauty.
.
.
It is now that
he remembers his name.
He was the one who courted,
beguiled Helen, took her to Troy.
His name, the gods took him here to remember his name.
.
.
.
All his life, he had fought his way along
the Hausmann lines of perfection
that used to encircle his palace. Armies of strangers.
This is where they end, in a blue
square on a gallery wall
reeking of bliss,

blue

Willkommen in meiner Welt  ( Wolke ) der Musik.
Projekt : Modern Philharmonic & Charism Voices

Von Anbeginn meiner Zeit fühle und denke ich in Musik. 
Das ist es. 
Ich finde meine hier veröffentlichten Kompositionen vermitteln das.  
Obwohl ich etwas Klavierunterricht hatte komponiere ich autodidaktisch, völlig frei im Moment.  
Nicht immer sind es gefällige Harmonien. Versucht meine Musik einfach unvoreingenommen und völlig wertfrei von Euren Hörgewohnheiten zu hören.

Folgt gerne meiner Klangwelt. 
Freue mich über meinen Musik-Account auf einen regen, kreativen inspirierenden Gedankenaustausch. 
Suche hier gleichgesinnte Sounddesigner*innen und Komponisten*innen die vielleicht mit mir ein verrücktes Klangteam bilden möchten um neue Klangwelten zu entdecken und kreieren.

Welcome to my world  ( Cloud ) of music.

From the beginning of my time feel and think in music.
That's it.
I think my compositions published here convey that.
Although I had some piano lessons, I compose self-taught, completely free at the moment.
It's not always pleasing harmonies. Just try to listen to my music unbiased and completely unjudged by your listening habits.

Feel free to follow my sound world.
I'm looking forward to a lively, creative and inspiring exchange of ideas via my music account.
I am looking for like-minded sound designers and composers who might want to form a crazy sound team with me to discover and create new worlds of sound.
