Boots On The Ground - Combstead / Robert Grigg

Caballo

Let You In

when I water the plants ahead of rain
I think about how little I have done
and having lost many friends for one I gained
makes me wonder are the best times gone?

I gotta say it’s a good thing
that every glen and every crag’s still full of wonder
next time we go hunting
let’s not speak until we learn to speak like thunder 

like thunder
where the syrup’s so sweet
even assassins aren’t willing to die
thunder
where the river’s so quick
even salmon are needing to fly
thunder
where the skies are so laden with gold
even nomads are hammering nails  
thunder
where the grass is so tall
every damnation fails
thunder

when I tell our kids to watch their six  
I marvel at how little I have done
as if a string of words will make the winds 
prop them up and even steer them as they run

we must declare it a good thing
that tiny circumstance can tear our peace asunder 
next time we go hunting
let’s not speak until we learn to speak like thunder

yeah, thunder
where the silk is so smooth
no shirt or skirt ever stays on the skin
where the dawns are so new
not a child nor a man knows the shell that they’re in
where the oceans are vaster
than even the cosmos would seem to permit
where a moment can last us
for all of the lives we have poured into it

when I hold your hand like we were meant
to reach a destination by tonight
yeah we should walk but let’s not pretend
we can cross more than a puddle in our stride

we flash before the thunder calls
before the thunder calls
so let’s not speak at all
till we've been where it goes

thunder

A hauntingly beautiful ambient track that takes you on a journey through the depths of the unknown. The track starts off with a low drone that slowly builds up into a mesmerizing melody that sounds like it's calling out to the void. As the melody progresses, it's joined by otherworldly sounds that seem to be coming from all around you. The overall mood of the track is eerie and mysterious, but also peaceful and calming. The soundscape is sparse but powerful, with each element placed intentionally to create a sense of space and depth.

Anybody Home ?

What I could have been, washed out by the salty sea, oh it is just a dream, a dream that's obsolete. 

What a place to be, a place where you can go and see, the things that you could be, all that you could dream. 

Now you'll never know, anywhere's the way to go, oh, It's all for the show, now you'll never know. 

Washed out by the sun, this sun is just the current one, the bun that traps the fly, now you wave goodbye. 

Just wasted on the sand, wasted in a foreign land, wasted like you planned, you wasted all your hands. 

Time it ticks away, ticks away another day, the days they will not stay, the days they go away. 

What I couldn't see, washed out by the salty sea, reminds me of the time, I searched but couldn't find. 

A scar that fades away, reminders of the former days, the days that fade away, the days they often change. 

The salty sea imbibes, more than you would care to mind, you're full up to your eyes, the salty sea revives.

PROGRAM NOTE
Most people want to be heard and want to be loved, and we are usually better at talking than listening. We are often so immersed in ourselves that we not only forget to listen to others in a meaningful, effective way but also to the world around us. With that in mind, Listen is about listening to each other and the world around us more deeply, especially concerning our environment. In that sense, this piece could have been titled “Deep Listening,” but since this work is meant to be more a call to action than an alliteration of a musical concept, I felt that Listen was a more appropriate title. Listen uses a tapestry of quotes from various well-known sources, both ancient and contemporary, that are about or related to the environment. My main goal through this piece is to create a musical call to action, encourage listening, and help to raise awareness about our environment and the natural world around us.

Listen is scored for choir (3 members playing Tingshas or crotales) and chamber ensemble, consisting of a flute, clarinet, violin, cello, percussion, and piano, and was commissioned by and is dedicated to Ember, Deborah Simpkin King, music director, and conductor, in honor of their 25th anniversary.
