The Ayres

a river runs down to the sea,
where we dip our feet in with glee.
behind us hills that stand around
to capture the sea's lovely sound.



Ballaugh Beach

Lyrics  - By Eleri
With peace we lead (With peace we lead)
To where stillness lives (it is now)
Let there be a light (a light within)
Share it with love.

With a peace we lead
To where our stillness lives
We'll lead us now,
Sharing our light (sharing our light)
We lead with peace.

With Peace we Lead

Across The Water

Gentle and nostalgic - soft piano and cello. Inspiration from improvisation.


Using #verticalpiano from The Crow Hill Company.
https://thecrowhillcompany.com/the-vertical-piano/

Gentle music to help you feel as free as a bird for a moment of calm. 

My newest composition was an inspired piano improvisation using a beautiful instrument from the crow hill company called Vertical Piano which has such a lovely backstory for the instrument origins and how they made it possible for composers to be able to create with it. 

I then developed my improvisation with additional instruments, cello and ethereal swell sounds.

And then I made this video: https://youtu.be/b_YRMmjUj7g

I searched for lovely soothing calming scenes of sunny mountains and then ordered them according to the way the song evolved.

I hope you enjoy!

Free As A Bird

Vertical Drop

More inspiration from improvisation with the Vertical Piano from the Crow Hill Company. 

Using an everlasting room effect to create a really dreamy listening experience.

With just the right amount of dreaminess in these soothing visuals, this video of yachts out at sea - with this song - will help you find a moment of stillness - https://youtu.be/gH85aNCmu5c

Drift away. I hope you enjoy!

If I was in your world

*Featuring Vertical Piano from The Crow Hill Company.

When you are nearly at the project's finish line - stress and project exhaustion at its highest - it is almost time for it to all finally come to an end. 

These are the final hours.

Final Hours

A quiet road can sometimes help dampen a noisy mind - Eleri.

Enjoy this new piano composition.

A Quiet Road

Gallop - Improv piano. 

I hope you enjoy.

Gallop

The Harvest Moon reminds me that Winter is not too far away. Time to bring in the apples and make ready for the cooler weather and to slow down a bit!

Harvest Moon

A calming moment to help send you off to sleep. 

Piano only.


A place to rest

Echoes of the Day is the sound of golden hours dissolving into memory, the warmth of sunlight tucked beneath the velvet embrace of evening—a melody that lingers, gently carrying you into the quiet dreamscape of night.

Echoes of the day

A song for finding peace, breath by breath.

Reflective, fluid, and evocative, 'The Tides Inside' is a journey through the ebb and flow of inner emotions. Gentle, cascading piano melodies mirror the rise and retreat of thoughts, like waves shifting with the mind’s tides. It embraces the tension of anxious currents and the soothing pull toward stillness, offering a space for introspection and calm. 

Let this music carry you, breath by breath, into tranquillity.

The Tides Inside

Piano, only.

I thought that a little lullaby verse/ something poetic - would be appropriate this time round - So I have written this to go with my track. I hope this helps you drift off!

         As the night draws in,
         Let your breathing stretch, slower still.
         The stars are out - put the day's worries aside.
         Rest now. Tomorrow, we begin again.

Good night!


Hush

Thank you for listening to my music!!!  My name is Eleri and I'm a composer, originally from South Africa, living on the Isle of Man, a small island in the Irish Sea.

I love to make music that creates moments of calm and also to help unwind ahead of sleep! The piano is my go to instrument for this.

My compositions are neo-classical, and a fusion of electronic and orchestral. Conveying vast soundscapes, compositions are multi-textured and layered to create ambience and timelessness.

Music is a joy to make, and I hope you will enjoy my creations!
