Description: Getting Old is not for me...no no no no no

...I'm curious who manages to listen to the entire almost 10 minute track! 🤍

This arose from a collaboration between my friend Gert-Jan from the Netherlands and me. He sent me his ideas and I added the beat, the arps and other instruments. Our friend Pieter played the saxophone solos on this track.

Under The Silver Moon  (Dehaas & c r u m i u s )

The Valiha, as might be gathered by anyone with interests beyond the bounds of unionized education, is a Malagasy rhythm instrument. I found it by chance, bought it because I liked the look of it, and play it according to my own ideas without the least knowledge of how such things are done in its home country. Hope you all enjoy it!

What's this song about? String Theory is the notion that all time exists on a string—a string that never disappears. I'm a fan of the podcast/television show Closer to Truth, an American production hosted by a neuroscientist. The host interviews the leading experts on many scientific and philosophical subjects. In a recent podcast, scientists discussed String Theory, which became the inspiration for this song. 

One scientist explained that if you imagine a string along which all time exists—past, present and future—then you can understand that right now both the future and past still exist on that string. So, in theory, the past never disappears and the future is waiting to happen. He likened it to a DVD of a movie. At any point you can rewind or move forward. He suggests that this may be possible with time. 

What I drew from this notion is that all that has happened in my life, all the people I have known—in particular those who are no longer here—are, according to this theory, still existing on the string. Is this a comfort? I think it is for me. 

This is why in the refrain I sing, " I will always be with you." Even when I no longer exist, I will exist along the string, a string that connects me to a past before my own existence began and to a future that I will never see. 

Perhaps you will draw something different from this song and from the theory. In any case, I hope you enjoy the musicianship on this recording. Georg and I worked hard to produce parts and solos that we're proud of.
