This is a small and very easy klezmertune, which should show the freygish scale, which is typical for that music .
the scale is here:
D-Eb-F#-G-A-Bb-C

Freygish

Christopher Columbus first came to Portugal to ask for some ships for his idea of reaching India sailing west. But the estimate he presented to the Portuguese court of the distances to reach Cipango and China were clearly wrong, and the request was refused. It was suicide. As he stumbled upon the Antilles, Columbus found his salvation and glory. But he never acknowledged that he was wrong, and that's why the new continent was not called Colombia. Amerigo Vesppucci wrote a popular book about the new territory, which was eventually named after him. 

PARTIR

Pour arriver, il faut partir.
I faut rêver d'une quelque part,
parfois envers et contre tous,
tout enivré de faux espoirs.

Il y a d'étonnantes découvertes 
qui nous attendent à l'horizon
sur les chemins pris par des fous
les Christophe Colomb qui risquent tout
cherchant la gloire d'inouïs voyages
et les richesses, et les mirages
pour étancher leur soif de faire
pour s'affranchir d'être néant.

Mais je ne pars pas, moi.
Je ne suis pas fou...
Je fais partie des sots bien sages
qui restent au port bien prudemment
pour éviter tous les naufrages,
pour échapper aux coups de vent.

Je peux vous dire, prenant de l'âge,
que j'ai vécu sans rien trouver,
que j'ai vieilli pour rien du tout.
Tout, sauf l'ennui et le regret
d'avoir raté la nef des fous.

LEAVING

To get somewhere, we need to leave.
We have to dream about some place,
sometimes against all odds,
inebriated with false hopes.

There are amazing discoveries
that await us on the horizon
on the paths taken by madmen
the Christopher Columbus who risks everything
seeking the glory of unheard voyages
and the riches, and the mirages,
to quench their thirst for doing something
to free themselves from being nothing.

But I'm not leaving.
I'm not crazy...
I am one of those wise fools
who very cautiously stay in the harbor
to avoid all shipwrecks,
to keep away from the gusts of wind.

I can tell you, now that I'm old,
that I have lived without a finding,
that I grew old without a purpose.
Nothing, except the boredom and the regret
of having missed the ship of fools.

Nocturnes Op. 1 No. 2

A circus came to our little town
It was Worn and on an endless tour
It was free admission
And they had a little popcorn machine
Everyone was invited

The circus didn’t have any animals or acrobats
Just two clowns and a circus manager
The clowns performed well but they weren’t any funny
No one clapt and we all went home
Next day it was just a spot where the circus has been

Bad on purpose

Hello and Welcome!     

It is so very wonderful to have discovered a beautiful world of music here on soundcloud. So many talented composers, musicians and artists. This is awesome and overwhelming at the same time... 
                  
I have always considered myself to be mainly a composer and then a pianist. I have been writing my own works since the age of 16. The first instrument that I ever played was a violin at age 6, then I began Classical piano training at age 7. My mother played violin, piano, organ and sang in the choir for the church we attended in my childhood... I hope that you will enjoy my music, it is an art that I love to work at every day....(to be continued)

Thank you for listening...

Cheers! Daniel :-)
