Hello, friends. 

 Welcome back to our music chamber.
We have a new track for you. ‘Nocturnalis’.
It was improvised freely by David Nelson and I and 
recorded on Jan 21, 2025 in Mamaroneck NY.

  A week later my computer crashed and all this data was lost and eventually recovered (whew!-thanks to the glorious and gifted geeks of BestBuy’s Geek Squad) . There was a lot of nail-biting in February, and I completed the editing in early March. 

 Today’s release is timed to coincide with a commemoration of Bela Bartok’s 144th birthday. Ever since my music teacher Irwin Stahl introduced me to Bartok, this music has been commanding prime real estate in my ear.
The current track is not by Bartok, per se, but his influence is in my blood, having steeped myself in the study and adulation of his entire oeuvre since 1977. If you are not familiar with his works, here are a few timeless gems;

Music for Strings, Percussion, and Celeste
Concerto for Orchestra
Contrasts for Clarinet, Violin, and Piano
Piano Concerto #3
The Miraculous Mandarin
Dance Suite
Suite for 2 Pianos
 
 These are just tips of the iceberg. Check them out.
I hope you find them worth renting space in your head, too.

 So, here is the opening track, ‘Nocturnalis’ from Duo Treason’s 11th album, “Soon to be Titled”. You may or may not detect Bartok’s influence, it’s subtle. It lurks in the shadows.
David plays a Steinway grand piano, model O, and I play a Silent Yamaha Classical guitar.

Lyrics:
I hope to god he hears me tonight
I've hurt myself and don't know why
I am cursed, I feel this way
'Cause every breath it hurts, I wanna
Fly away on a paper airplane
In the sky where no one should ever come down
Far away
Always dream chaser
Daydream aviator

I wish someone could bring me to life
'Cause all I feel is dead inside
I'm up so high above or down below
Paper airplanes fly

Fly away on a paper airplane
In the sky where no one should ever come down
Far away
Always dream chaser
Daydream aviator

Tell me what the fuck I have to be equal
Everyone relates to my sequel
And my confessions to the priest he said he'd never tell
I know you don't like me, you don't like me
I know you don't like me, you don't like me
I know you don't like me, you don't like me
I know you don't like me, you don't like me

Fly away on a paper airplane
In the sky where no one should ever come down
Far away
Always dream chaser
Daydream aviator

Fly away on a paper airplane
In the sky where no one should ever come down
Far away
Always dream chaser
Daydream aviator

Always dream chaser
Aviator

Fly away on a paper airplane
In the sky where no one should ever come down
Far away
Always dream chaser
Daydream aviator

I hope to God he hears me tonight
I've hurt myself and don't know why
I am cursed, I feel this daydream aviator
