Winter into Spring(2017-2021)

This heartfelt sketch for Piano and Strings is born out of a recent Improvisation that seeks to suggest the power and passion of Love's eternal nature. Impossible to do perhaps, yet if it is freely expressed... Love seems to travel like Light and bind giver and receiver together in a warm, rich, and almost unfathomable Oneness. 

So, here's to what is called 'Forever Love', and may everyone find it!  💖

Love Is Forever

As soon as @stabhappy reached out to me for a collaboration, i was all in! 
He based it on potions of my tune DreamStream @ https://soundcloud.com/gary-courtland-miles/stream-dreams  

Here's a taste of what emerged!

May you InJOY! :-D

DreamStream @StabHappy  Re-MiX

In between Summer and Fall, Nature seems puzzled for a brief period as the transition completes itself; much like us as we merge with our futures. 
But somehow everything works out.

In any case, here is a composition on Electric Piano born in a recent improvised recording session. It merges and flows in waves and patterns that never quite resolve themselves even as they stay harmonious. Puzzling in-deed! :)

A Distant Arcade

"Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters."  
  And from that place let the mysteries and nuances of The Deep 
  be revealed 
  to all who seek... but do not covet.

  Yes, Dare to Ask...
  but only for Wisdom and Understanding,
  for 'Knowlege about' is empty of actual experience and meaning.

Indeed... the Timeless Mysteries of Sound, Light, and Being 
call out our primaeval inner natures 
and beckon us to draw near...
to discern, and to intuit... 
and perhaps, 
to begin to comprehend the Cosmic Simplicity
which pervades the Whole. 

Let us not Be overly concerned 'to Possess', 
but rather...  
to be a Channel
a point through which Creation's intelligence
can flow into this small yet beautiful world.

For is it not enough, brothers and sisters,
that this wondrous Universe not only gifts us Life, 
but also offers us the opportunity to Co-Create? 

I say, Yes!
In-deed!  :)
                              

                ----------------------------------

This Music seeks to do the impossible,
to describe the indescribable Awe and Wonder of this Timeless Procession of Becoming ...

May it Celebrate the Mysteries of Life itSelf.

Mysteres et Nuance

Like breathing, improvisation is an unconscious flow from within.
Of course, one must understand the basics and have spent a good many hours building a tonal memory, but once one gets the knack of it, improvising, no matter what the instrument, is a Gift that keeps on giving. :)

As you tap into these inner autonomic cycles, you reach a Zone that's beyond anything you could consciously think of or plan. Like one's heartbeat, it's in tune with Life itself. It just happens. 

In any case...I love it when the Music is 'Floating'.......'Levitating' so to speak... not really going anywhere in particular, but tonally and rhythmically totally Present.  And... as we get better and better at finding the door to this experience, more and more wondrous music begins to manifest itself through us. it's almost as if we aren't even present.

Then the hard work of Arranging and Mastering begins!  :-D 

But be that as it may... for the Best experience of this one, I suggest you put it on Repeat at a Medium volume and let it go for 10-15 minutes.  it's sure to help you 'take a breath', become lost in peace, and relax deeply. :D  

May you inJOY. :-D
