Description: Sometimes life changes faster than you belive!

beautiful piano! very emotional and sentimental

Nice scaling timing, makes you want more of it.

nice! very well played and the drums provide a nice compliment

When I get on to the stage
And my heart's pounding
I look around to find
Just one familiar face

I try to use my imagination
The moment the music starts
Just then a voice from inside tells me
To follow my heart

Oh the heart never fails
To open up its sails
And show the way

It comes as such a revelation
When it's time to play your part
A story may end or have a new beginning
But you gotta follow your heart

I sing a line or two
And my senses return
The world's a stage with more than one known face
What a precious thing to learn

The drums jive and the flute dances
As I twirl and march
It's a magical world, a beauty to unfold
When we can follow our heart

It comes as such a revelation
When it's time to play your part
A story may end or have a new beginning
But you gotta follow your heart

Heart to Heart

Follow Your Heart (EP - Heart to Heart)

Another Autumn morning
With the fog on the hills
The mist on the lakeside
And the air so deathly still
The slumbering fells
Can't hear the old church bells
Time means nothing at all

The boats at the quay side
Their sails ripped and torn
Aimlessly are drifting
Like me, all alone
I stare at the tide
And I sigh inside
When will you come home

When are you coming home
When will you return
To my land by the sea

The twilight now has fallen
And the lanterns burn so bright
The water gently lapping
Pulls the stars out of the night
As I turn to the shore
The darkness asks once more
When will you come home

When are you coming home
When will you return
To my land by the sea

As I turn to the shore
The darkness asks once more
When will you come home

PROGRAM NOTES
Spring Songs for tenor and chamber ensemble or piano is my third song cycle celebrating the seasons. As with the first two, Winter Songs for bass-baritone and Summer Songs for soprano, this cycle contains settings of poems by various American poets.

Whereas both Winter Songs and Summer Songs end with scenes in New York City, Spring Songs begins with New York: a setting of English Sparrows (Washington Square) by Edna St. Vincent Millay, a poem about a scene that takes place in the morning in Greenwich Village, a neighborhood in New York City where Millay lived in the early 1900s. The second movement is a setting of April 5, 1974 by Richard Wilbur, a poem Wilbur wrote in honor of Robert Frost’s one-hundredth birthday, and I interpret as being about overcoming self-doubt through wisdom, and about understanding the change of seasons, but also a change of mind. The third movement, Done With by Ann Stanford, I interpret to be about death and rebirth. Stanford symbolizes this by a house being torn down and the ground paved over, the now suffocated plant life yearning to break through. The Widow’s Lament in Springtime, the fourth movement, is a setting of a poem by William Carlos Williams. I interpret this poem as a modernist, pastoral elegy that uses images of nature to lament the death of a loved one. The final movement, a setting of the poem Spring Rain by Sara Teasdale, is about a happy memory of a lover brought about by an evening thunderstorm.

Spring Songs was commissioned by Rick Teller and Kathleen Rogers and was premiered at Carnegie Hall’s Weill Recital Hall by the American Modern Ensemble, Alok Kumar, tenor, and Geoffrey Burleson, piano.

REACH is a collaboration with the mult-iinsturmentalist Ni!
I played the piano and he layered a bass clarinet, kalimba as well as a trumpet over it.

Reach (feat. Ni!)

Akustisches Restprodukt eines ehemals gesellschaftsfähigen Menschen

Willkommen. Ich war mal ein funktionierendes Mitglied der Gesellschaft.
Hatte Jobs. Beziehungen. Träume.
Dann kam das Leben – und hat alles filetiert.

Jetzt sende ich aus dem Off.
Kein Applaus. Kein Publikum. Kein Bedarf.
Nur Überbleibsel eines Systems, das sich selbst frisst und mich ausgespuckt hat.

Was du hier hörst, ist keine Musik.
Es ist das Störsignal eines Menschen,
der aufgehört hat, sich in Bewerbungsformularen zu erklären.

Diese Klänge sind Überlebenszeugnisse.
Vertonte Isolation. Die Tonspur zur Resignation.
Hergestellt in der Dunkelkammer zwischen Klinikflur, SGB II und Gerichtspost.

Ich bin nicht einsam, ich bin nur der Letzte,
der noch hinschaut, während alle anderen versuchen, sich abzulenken.
Ich mach keine Songs. Ich baue Mahnmale.
Aus Frequenzen. Aus Fragmenten. Aus dem, was noch übrig ist.

Willst du was fühlen? Hör hin.
Willst du was verstehen? Viel Glück.
