not sure if we're waiting for the same thing, but I'm right there at window w/u.  emotional thoughtful melody beautifully played. 🙏

I love the spaciousness in your playing. So evocative. 

Some harmonies changes remind me of Fauré's Pavane...

I was very lucky to collaborate with Philleann @philleann: on such a beautiful song.

The Glimmering Shore

They married in haste on a bright winter’s day 
Knowing the next tide would sail him away 
But he pledged his return come the warmth of the May
 And to wait for him there on the glimmering shore

High masted whaler, fading from view 
Beyond her horizon of shimmering blue 
Steeling her heart, through tearful adieu 
Set to wait for her love by that glimmering shore

May’s softness as swallows came dancing on air 
July blessed her life with his daughter so fair 
Then autumn winds rising, whispering despair 
While she waits for her love on that glimmering shore

Darklings of winter, snow blankets the sand.
 Earth forged to ice, life stripped from the land. 
Daily returning, the horizon to scan 
To wait for her love on that glimmering shore

Weeks swelled to months that folded to years
 Hope’s light expiring, extinguished by fears 
And the salty sea roared and it crashed like her tears
As she waits for her love on that glimmering shore

Like a ship gripped by tempest ne’er to break free
 Her heart imprisoned on a turbulent sea. 
No lighthouse of guidance to lead her to lee. 
She'd wait for her love on that glimmering shore

The Glimmering Shore (feat. Philleann)

Anastasiya Ihnatovich is one of the best talents to be found on SC. I had the privilege of being able to sing to the notes of her splendid piano. I recommend you to listen to her music here:
(@anastasiya-ihnatovich) you will be fascinated!

Voice, lyric and strings ………………… ..Paolo Pieraccini
Below the lyrics of our song together
Time goes so slower
missing the one you love
You are my prison
But I don't want to escape
No, I don't feel alone
causes sadness
                                                                     
Is always with me

I still love you
But you don't care about me
You don't care about me
About me
I hide my pain with a smile
For you
It's true
I can't be strong all the time
And so I gave in to the pain
and I'm sure that my woman
My only woman is you

This is part 2 of some improvisational recordings I made with Pat Howell's beautiful handcrafted-from-a -kit dreadnought acoustic guitar.  Part 1 details the guitar's journey a little more and here I wanted Pat to hear his guitar in drop D tuning, and I thought you'd like to hear it too:)

The Snow Queen - The Enchanted Garden

We all feel it sometimes...no control, tossed around by fate. With the car as a metaphor, Shael Wrinch and Chris Herbsen have a new tune, "Drive the Car". Vocals by Chris , Shael and introducing Sierra Wolfe with some gorgeous harmonies, and thanks also to Garth Mosbaugh for some wonderful piano!  Produced as always by Shael at Stone Hill studio on beautiful Bowen island. 

Lyrics:
Rusty sign on a rusty chain. Rusty town, not much to gain
Destiny is a dark and heavy load
Both hands upon the wheel, no control that I can feel
Here we are just victims of the road
                                                                    and the seeds we sowed.
Let me drive the car...
Fate has got my heart in tow, telling me which way to go.
Some day I'm gonna strike out on my own
This route mapped out for me, on a highway I cant see
A version of my life that I don't own
                                                                 On a wind I'm blown
Let me drive the car...
Through a windshield cracked and worn, dreams tattered, nerves are torn
Bad tires and fuel is running low
I know there's a road out there, smooth, warm, desert air
All I ask is time behind the wheel
                                                           and the miles I feel
Let me drive the car...

Drive The Car

I have the pleasure of sharing with you a beautiful piece composed by Enrico Russo for his granddaughter.... he asked me to play this piece and re-arrange whatever I thought would be better....I did change notes in the beginning of the piece, but left most of the middle bit nearly as it was, as I thought he had done a beautiful work.....
I hope you will enjoy listening, as much as I have playing it....
May I take this opportunity to wish everyone here on SC a blessed and Merry Christmas, and my warmest wishes for the New Year....

Canto d'amore per Amélie

Despite the fact that the year was very difficult, I decided to finish it on a positive note and recorded a new track, the last one this year. I dedicate this work to all my friends and listeners here on my favorite Soundcloud and on Facebook, to everyone who has supported me all these years. You are beautiful people to me! Many people will find their photos on the cover of the track)) I wish you all the best, happiness and peace! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you! Enjoy listening)

Beautiful People

Panorama.2

Hello, and welcome to my piano world!  I am totally smitten by the sound of a piano.  As a girl I got into quite a bit of trouble for "arranging" my assigned piano pieces . Oops!!  After a lifetime of all-things-piano I continue to be fascinated by creating my own compositions.   I thrive on tweaking old favorites and writing original compositions as well as continuing with more formal studies.  My style reflects my personality: mostly mellow with a surprising twist of the knife here and there.  I hope to always keep growing and learning, reflecting the beauty of Christ in all I do.
