Fabulous orchestration. Steadily making my way through your work and I must say I am really enjoying it! Are all the parts scored Jim?

ha Haha..  turns out you released this marvelous piece on my 70th. :)

@user-138663860: Thank you and Happy New Year! I'm so glad you liked it. Here is a video of the number https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9vmGRMO7kI

A track that makes you think and reflect on life.  Lovely composition.

In 2019 I started writing small tone poem-ish material, Waiting was the first piece. I got the idea for this while on a trip to Maine and seeing a  lighthouse.

Collaboration with the talented and hardworking Synline https://on.soundcloud.com/bzQWw

Synline reached out during a bout of extreme summer weather in Tokyo with the intention of writing a soothing chill track in resonance with the season. I was pleased to provide some guitar lines and layers to assist in his creation.

Fantasy is a remarkable ability that allows us to imagine things that are not directly present in our environment. It allows us to develop new ideas, create alternative realities and put ourselves in the perspectives of other people or even other beings. Fantasy is often closely linked to creativity and drives innovation, art, literature, science and many other areas of human life. With our fantasy, we are able to approach problems in new ways, empathize with different situations and imagine what could be, rather than limiting ourselves to what already exists. Isn't that a wonderful gift?

So What (Miles Davis)

“There is nothing permanent except change.” – Heraclitus.

The music industry (like many things) has changed greatly since I bought my first 45 record (Green Eyed Lady) at my hometown record shop in 1970. It would be very easy to lament over these changes (and I have.) However, with change comes new opportunities, and thanks to websites/apps like Soundcloud we musicians and composers have the opportunity to to be heard as never before. So thank you Soundcloud and thank you for visiting my page. - Jim Combs
