"Slight Echoes" takes you on an emotional journey, starting with a melancholic piano that sets the tone for a powerful transformation. As the track unfolds, the rhythm intensifies with the addition of bass, guitar, and drums, leading to a hypnotic, repetitive guitar solo. The piece concludes with a lighter, more hopeful piano, symbolizing resilience and the delicate balance between sorrow and strength. Dive into this captivating blend of emotions and let the music speak to you.

Slight Echoes

Lamenta eleni silmë was born out of a desire to capture the fragility and beauty of an ephemeral moment, like the light of the stars on a deep night. When I composed this piece, I wanted to create a bridge between the past and the present, between ancient traditions and the modern soul. Each note and rhythm was carefully chosen to transport the listener into a state of deep tranquility, where time seems to stand still. At the same time, I intended for this piece to be a lament of sorrow, a cry of grief that brings comfort to those facing loss and sadness.

I chose Quenya over Sindarin or any other Elvish languages because Quenya is the language of the High Elves, those who lived in the blessed realm of Valinor, closest to the divine. It carries with it a sense of purity, timelessness, and a deep connection to the origins of Elven culture. Quenya’s lyrical and ancient beauty felt like the perfect medium to express the ethereal and almost sacred nature of this lament. Unlike Sindarin, which is more commonly spoken in Middle-earth and has a more earthly tone, Quenya evokes a world of fantasy, filled with mystery and nostalgia, adding a timeless dimension to this creation. The female voice, echoing as if from another world, is meant to soothe and provide solace, while the traditional instruments, such as the cithern, add an organic, almost ritualistic texture.

I wanted the listener to feel enveloped by an inner warmth, a light that guides them through a chaotic world. This piece is an invitation to introspection, a chance to lose oneself in thought and find a moment of peace amidst the tumult of daily life. Lamenta eleni silmë is more than a melody; it is a song of lament for those seeking inner light, a moment of breath in an ever-moving universe.

I am also offering the lyrics in Quenya, along with their approximate translation in English, for those who wish to delve deeper into the meaning behind the music.

Nai eleni silmë ar sercë nárë
Lindë máya, nai almárë
Vëo narquelië lómë ya quetë
Quetë lá quessë ar morna lumna

Nai Anar ortane i lúmë túlë
Ai! Yé ná ilya vanwa
Órë nildë nauva sanwa lanta
Ilúvatar, hiruvalmë silmë ambar

Lírë vanwë nótë óla
Mi silma ar laurië naurë
Ára i cala, ára i lóte
Utaúya, utaúya nai lanta

May the stars shine and the blood burn,
Sing, spirits, may your blessing be.
The shadow of departure whispers in the night,
Wordless whispers are the heavy burden of darkness.

May the Sun rise at the appointed hour,
Ah! All is lost,
The heart of the friend will find solace,
Ilúvatar, we shall find the light on Earth.

The lost song flows through memory,
Under the light of the stars and the golden flames,
I call the light, I call the flower,
Let them perish, let them perish, may they fall.
