I composed this piano piece (in c minor) in New York City 2 months ago. The melody reminds me of a kind and reliable friend. The music is playful in its rhythms but gentle and relaxing in mood.

A Lending Hand

Yes, another of my songs using 7/4.  The verse pattern is 2-2-3.  I am using the higher ranges of my voice on this song.  I sing and play lead guitar on this song.  All other instruments and effects are those available in Cubase.  The guitar is a Squire Strat with David Gilmour EMG pickups.  The guitar effect is called The Wall.

Photosynthesis

Verse 1:
The sun is shining down
No one has a frown
On the many fine plants
Nor the friendly ants
They love the warmth
Even those in the North

Chorus:
Yes photosynthesis
That is the wonder
A long word in sentences
But it has thunder
It’s not a blunder
From way down under

Verse 2:
Turning the sun’s energy to life
Just like a man who loves his wife
Bringing water and gas together
Stringing molecules in a tether
Making oxygen out of thin air
Just an expression that is so fair

Chorus

Bridge:
Photosynthesis
Life Giving Force
Keeping mankind alive

Verse 3:
The energy stored in carbohydrates
That savor on our plates
Those little sugars that taste so good
Even when they seem like wood
Are at the core of life on Earth
Even traveling from Sydney to Perth

Final Chorus:

Outro:
Thank you, plants

Still Waters

Welcome to the third part of this very personal and emotional 4-Movement-Symphony !

An orchestral work about "HOME" is a great undertaking, with high expectations, which one actually almost has to fail at.
Therefore, I embark on a personal journey of thought and try to paint musical pictures with four movements from different viewpoints.

The first movement, introduced by a pathetic orchestral forte meanders - moves across stylistic zones, sometimes on the borderline of classical tonality, sometimes loud and self-confident, then desperate, often romantic and peaceful from scene to scene.
Fugue-like quotations are juxtaposed with post-romantic sequences. Film music-like moments duel with almost classical reminiscences.
This movement represents the restless quest that touches on many things but finishes very few. The last tones fade away with a romantic, allusive love scene and gentle slumber.

The second movement is marked by illness and melancholy. As it has happened many times in my musical endeavors, life sets strong impulses and overturns my original plans. 
It turned from a movement that was originally intended for love, to a fantasy about fever dreams and fear, caused by my sudden sickness. So this movement was getting quasi a setting about Corona.
Fever dreams, fears for my loved ones, weakness and deep griefs and heaviness weigh down the sounds. The situation seems hopeless.
Several times my beloved tries to lighten the state of mind - orchestrated by the English horn. These are the short moments when the music changes from minor to major for a few bars. The illness, however, remains dominant until this movement ends with a touch of hope.

The third movement dabbles in joie de vivre. A 6/8 time signature in the corner sections and 3/4 time in the middle section suggest lightness. Nevertheless, the piece remains rather subdued and demonstrates that life brings many burdens with it. The expression: Home cannot be found through exuberant celebration.

The fourth movement initially alludes to several events in the preceding movements. To illness, to travel, to loss, to transient joys. 
As it progresses, it deals with the people who are truly meaningful, my children, my family, my darling.
The finish is a declaration of love for people. The music becomes more and more romantic and expresses the joy of life.

Home is not found in places or in moods. 
It is a gift: Home is where the heart finds peace and tranquility.

A Long Long Time Away

This peaceful haiku, by Pritee Rel, inspired my improvisation (in A minor) played on a pad from Dune3 VST synth, with Valhalla Shimmer added. Recorded and mixed in Reaper. Mastered with CloudBounce.

Wake

My music is freely improvised, usually on VST synthesizers, sometimes fretless bass, guitar, occasionally electric viola or cello, with a variety of effects pedals. Solo music is performed live and recorded as 'FlownBlue'.  I am also in four improvising duos: 'Windfall Light' (with Jim Tetlow), 'Abstract Blue' (with Kevin Buckland), 'Light Fragments' (with Steve Escott), and Szukanie (with Michał Wojciechowski). I'm a member of the Quadelectronic improv group based in Leicester, UK. Duo music is all on Bandcamp - links below.
