Name: Lamentation for Organ by Joseph Haspel in M like music 16
Duration: 4 min 56 s
Description: A composition from around 2000. I was honored to have it recorded by the wonderful organist Edo Luynenburg in November of 2014. Lamentation is dedicated to Edo.

Crazy, but superb.  Extraordinary work.  Amazing the layers you have created from one instrument.  Marvelous Joe!

A beautiful and very expressive piece for organ!

@hans-petersommeregger: Thanks a lot Hans-Peter! - yes, the music has a kind of coming into its own after the shrill, central climactic point.

did I miss this?  How could I have missed this?!?!  I'm a fool for pipe organ music.  This is wonderful, Joseph. (I wish my friend John was still performing regularly, I am sure he'd knock it out of the park . . .er, cathedral. <3 <3

Well the night’s effervescent and I’m on fire
Full of anti depressants to blunt my ire
Well aware of the presence of my desire
It feels very pleasant as I get higher
And I’m clad in a fashion to catch the eye
So why does everyone ignore me as I walk by
It would be a different story for a different guy
But I’ll never find the glory unless I try
So why do I lie so low 
Why don’t I let them know
Let them bask in the glow
Of my ghetto falsetto 

Most are fucked up from the drugs they take,
and don't care to interrupt all the love I make,
but I can't quite erupt so, I'll simply fake,
and make believe
that I have climaxed, because all the noise
that keeps me far from relaxed and trapped in the void, 
I've always had a clean nose but perhaps I'll toy 
with singing in falsetto. 

These streets are full of cackles and high pitched screams
A ghetto manifesto haunting my dreams
Monotone narration to a story I know
A baritone ending won’t leave me alone
I’m not crazy it’s the world around me
I’ll deal with the shit eventually 
Then get past the truth I know
That I’m too low for ghetto falsetto 

But it don’t mater how high or how low 
Unless you mean it nobody will know
All you need is the seed and the get go
Let go of the ghetto falsetto

When I was younger I sometimes got depressed. I didn't know how to handle it. But as I got older I become more known with my mind and body, and learned how to deal with it in advance, recognize the signals that came first... And I got through  :)

Lyrics:

I see the big black hole
Right in front of me
Whispering evil in my ear...
Must avoid falling into it
Have courage
Show no fear....

My heart is beating
My blood is pumping
Can I find another way.....
Feeling lost
Feeling scared
Should I run, or should I stay....?

Small steps around the hole
Falling to the ground...
So much pain as I crawl
But I got through
A new day just began....

I got through!
