wonderful intro with the various instruments softly announcing their themes, great and subtle arranging

such grace, its complicated/sophisticated writing but emotive and easily consumed

bravo, exciting writing, great Oboe theme and instrumentation including choir parts are top notch. looking forward to hearing more of your work. Cheers Mat

like an urgent message that you cannot escape, most expressive music...

Wonderful to hear this amazing work again.

I caught my 8-yo daughter Hannah improvising freely and just added some synths

This song was about the tragedy of the twin towers attack and written in 2001. RIP to all the victims 🤍

Lyrics
Tell me this..
Do we know about your fundamental ways?
You kind of miss ..
Our way of life and way of strife, it kind of pays!
Where is the bliss,
In this collapse, in this relapse of olden days and olden ways

Now you've gone and made unsure tomorrow
With what we here no one knows what to follow
Try let your feelings flow and then swallow these lines

Tell me this...
Why have you gone and swallowed yourselves?
Your hypocrites
You could have called this something else
With your fists
This jihad shows nothing but hell,
'Aint hard to tell

Now we long for your reason to greet us
Pledge holy war with yourselves try and beat this
Remember peace in your afghan two fingers worldwide

It's possible
Through the years you've been used and abused
But by whom?
Not the innocent those who take the rule
And you assume
That these people care what you do...
They've got no clue!

Now you've gone and made unsure tomorrow
With what we here no one knows what to follow
Try let your feelings flow and then swallow these lines
Now we long for your reason to greet us
Pledge holy war with yourselves try and beat this
Remember peace in your afghan two fingers worldwide

03 The Collapse

Forces

A much more complete version of this work - the orchestral part was posted last fall - now the choirs have been added and the solo parts are represented by instruments. The part of Jesus is extensive in this part of the passion - his voice is for the most part represented by the oboe except for a few sections where the orchestration is very full and the playing very loud - in these sections the trumpet is used. The other vocal solo parts are both very short - Peter is represented by a solo cello and Judas by a flute.

Hope you enjoy
Thanks for listening
