Fly Me To The Moon (Bart Howard cover)

Situation Zero

A little piano piece. I love our planet :)

Down To Earth

If catharsis is the sense of relief after tragedy, this is what comes afterward.

The Sound of Light

Echoes of the Sea

Echoe sof the Sea

They were traveling for almost 10 years...
The old Wounded Healer and The Young Man.
Long years of fighting dark creatures and curing people from the cruel illness brought both of them deep under ground, almost to the center of the world.

There, as if far from the very last soul of the earth, was a giant garden.
It was a garden of white flowers and colossal trees with white leafs. It felt like this place was the frozen in time memory of the past somewhere very far from the world they both knew for the whole time. It was so beautiful...

For some reasons, The Young Man and The Wounded Healer both understood that it is the end. They finally found the source of the problem. All that was left is to find where it comes from.

They were breaking through every dark creature they see on their way. Every last one of them was weak against our heroes, driven by one and only purpose. They were unstoppable after all they've been through.

And far away, somewhere in the end of the Garden, there was a giant Heart, patiently waiting for someone to find it here, deep under ground, in the center of this world. To tell them the bitter truth, they both was afraid of to find out in the end...

Truth That Lies Ahead

In the end, The Young Man made it through to the center of the giant Heart of the World, corrupted by darkness. 

He was all alone here, because The Wounded Healer died during their last battle. He saw the core right in front of him. The pure light. So warm. So white... like the sunlight, he was never felt before.

He didn't want this world to die. He wanted to save it. But it was the fate that brought him here, to the end of the story.

The Young Man felt something like a friendly warmth in his own heart. That was The Wounded Healer's soul, accompanying him to the very end.

They both wanted to save this world from dying. They promised to protect it at any cost. But now, the boy must destroy it himself, to recreate once again. In the end, boy understood that life never gives us what we want as we see it, but as it is given to us. And although, he himself become the End he was trying to avoid, he will have a chance to create the very new world, being a God. Being the new hope of the world he will make by himself.

The Young Man took the core of pure light in his hands, put it in his chest, and wished to cleanse this world.

Everything disappeared in a second...
There was a light everywhere. The white light.
And so, The Young Man decided to create the new world.

The world he can call his new home.

Wind of Farewell

The world is a little less now. We lost Dorothy Fallows on Sunday, December 15th, 2024, to complications from breast cancer. Dottie was vivacious, fun-loving, intelligent, dedicated to her work, beautiful, a scientist, a lover of opera and serious music, and a loving sister and aunt. I have known and loved Dorothy for 42 years as a sister-in-law.  #NYC, #Schubert, #Puccini.  Read her LinkedIn profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dorothy-a-fallows-7b948723/
The piece begins in F# minor. I ended the piece on an A-chord, which Beethoven said was the happiest key because Dottie brought happiness to people she cared about and people she met along the way.

Mystification

Aubade in the 5th section of my Philip Larking song sequence In the White Hours. Although there is a poem by Larkin with that title, this section of the work is a purely instrumental interlude 'Dawn Song' that leads into the final setting, Morning at Last.
