Mellow Waves: Chillout Jazz

Jazz Whispers

Bài thơ này tôi viết được hơn 2 năm rồi, hôm nay mới làm nhạc cho nó và đặt tên là "Khu vườn vẫn cứ xanh":

Sáng nay Sài Gòn lất phất mưa,
Lòng bỗng mênh mông…
Cả một ngày bận lu bù không có thời gian ngơi nghỉ,
Sờ đến cây guitar ở văn phòng,
Một dây đàn bỗng đứt!
Thấy nhớ khu vườn Hội An da diết…
Mấy bữa nay,
Trời nơi ấy cũng mưa,
Cây lá xanh tươi,
Lại càng thêm nhớ…

Em Cookie hôm nay về tới Sài Gòn
Sau 5 năm “nhập cư” về làng quê xứ Hội.
Em phải xa dòng sông Đò,
Xa những rặng dừa,
Xa những sớm bình minh và những chiều hoàng hôn tô hồng bầu trời, 
Xa đàn vịt hàng trăm con cứ mỗi sáng lại rồng rắn đi chơi,
Xa những chú chim suốt ngày ríu rít…

Nhưng em lại được ở bên anh Taka và cả nhà.
Thôi thì cuộc đời vốn vậy!
Chả ai có được tất cả,
Và ai cũng có những mất mát, những nỗi niềm riêng.
Nhưng rồi khu vườn vẫn cứ xanh,
Cả những cây hoa,
Cả những bụi cỏ,
Sau cơn mưa trời sẽ sáng bừng trở lại!
Ngày mới sẽ vui!

The songs ‘Returning’ and ‘The Cradle’ are from George Winston’s Grammy award winning album ‘Forest’ released in 1994.  Returning has been transposed to the key of G minor as George frequently played this song as the introduction to The Cradle which is also in the key of G minor.

‘Returning’ was written by George Winston and ‘The Cradle’ is George’s arrangement of a song originally written and recorded by jazz organist Larry Young (Khalid Yasim) as a duet for organ and drums on his 1968 album Heaven on Earth.  The song is dedicated to moms everywhere.

I recorded songs on my Nord Stage 2 voicing Spectrasonics Keyscape using a custom patch based on a modified 7’ 6” Yamaha C7 Grand Piano.  This piano was fitted with Renner “Blue Point” hammers with Welckert felt - a special piano hammer felt used during the pre-Cold War “golden age of Steinway”.

Clair de Lune - Debussy Piano

Everything soaked in regret and old Hollywood black & white
1952 Female Detective TV Show by Edwin H. Balder
She walked in like a whisper, silk on tile
Red wine lips, cigarette smile
Her glove hit the floor like a dare, like a flag
“You find things, don’t you?” she said with a drag
The file said “missing,” but the trail was warm
Hotel ledger signed in a trembling form
Room 6 smelled of jasmine and gunpowder
The mirror cracked, but her perfume was louder
It’s a game of smoke and velvet lies
Where truth wears heels and alibis
She’s the queen of hearts, I’m the queen of doubt
And every move’s a whisper till I call it out
The bellhop flinched when I asked her name
Said she checked in twice, but never came
A matchbook folded in a lover’s code
And a lipstick note that said “I owed”
She never blinked when I said his name
But her pulse betrayed the flame
The lace she wore was stitched in grief
And every thread spelled disbelief
There was blood on the cuff of her coat
A receipt for a room she never wrote
A photo torn, just half a face
And a diamond ring in a velvet case
She said he vanished, left her cold
But the bruises bloomed in stories told
She wasn’t chasing ghosts or men
She was chasing silence once again
It’s a game of smoke and velvet lies
Where truth wears heels and alibis
She’s the queen of hearts, I’m the queen of doubt
And every move’s a whisper till I call it out
She killed the man who broke her vow
Then hired me to chase him down
Not to find him—but to bury the trail
Layer of... sheer lace...this lamp light tail
But here’s the twist she didn’t see
I found the truth she meant for me
A bullet lodged in a music box
A name engraved beneath the locks
The maid saw her leave at 2:09
With powder burns and shattered wine
She paid in cash, she wore his coat
And left a note that simply wrote:
"He said forever. I said ....nope"
It’s a game of smoke and velvet lies
Where truth wears heels and alibis
She’s the queen of hearts, I’m the queen of doubt
And every move’s a whisper till I call it out
She killed the man who broke her vow
Then hired me to chase him down
Not to find him—but to bury the trail
Layer of... sheer lace... 
Her... final... veil...
The case is closed, the file is sealed
But I still taste the lies she peeled
She wore regret like vintage silk
And poured revenge as smooth as milk
The lace was hers, the crime was clean
She played the part, she set the scene
And I—
I let her go
Because I know
What women do
When they’re alone
And done
With being seen
