An enchanting story of love embraced by a string quintet, piano and voice.  Love is all around them, birds begin to sing.  Night or day it’s all the same, cuz when you have love.  Life is so beautiful.  That’s what they say about them.  We’re having so much fun together, I hope it never ends.  

Singer Kim Kalesti uses her emotional sensitivity in using a string vibration arrangement that weaves in and out of her piano and voice magic.  

A true story of love by ‘them’ whomever them might be.  

Thank you to my creative team at Making Music Records,  a family networking magnetic field of all possibilities.

thoughts to forgive myself 
thoughts to forgive myself 

I will honor me, to forgive myself
for the things I did in the past
not to cling onto situations now
gonna make my life brand new

we were very young
life was new to us 
foolish things we said in the past
now the time has come 
to relieve our hearts 
from the sorrow from the past

take a walk with me
ahh yes
to our other world
ahh yes
from a troubled past 
to a life brand new

take a walk with me
ahh yes
to our other world
ahh yes

to forgive to set our hearts free
to begin anew

Take A Walk With Me

Written and performed by Kim Kalesti 

Lyrics:

ringing in the bells
chime in the joys of life
ringing in the bells 
you too can have a good life 
full of laughter like children who are playing 
they’re dancing and swaying to the bells
that are saying to live your life free
mind what your thoughts will bring 
ringing in the bells 
trust when those bells do ring
chimes ring in happiness 
truth rings in honor 
hearts that are open to the bells 
that are saying that someday 
bells will find you crying
when love takes you by the hand
leads you to love’s promise land
oooh oooh 

ring in the bells 
ring in a feeling of love that dispels 
all past resentments that tore us to pieces 
now love just increases 
to friends and relations 
it’s so easy when you just 
ring in the happiness 
chime in the joys of life
ringing in the bells

Ringing In The Bells

Reflections

"Once Again I Fell Back" Recreating the woman who's trying to not fall back on promises she made, to herself.  A huge thank you to trumpeter Antoine Dyer.  David at Samurai Hotel Recording Studios.  Engineer piano/voice Jack DeBoe, Atomic Sounds.  Making Music Records.

Once Again I Fell Back

Soft gentle songs expressing what eyes see while walking the streets, hearing people taking at you, noise of planet earth. Understanding the depth of gentle whispers, soft gentle lullaby. A single note is allowed to take its time to resonate before the unexpected cluster of loving intention is played on the piano. Harmonic blanket of silky under score to an angelic soft voice. Embraces your ears, soft and sublime.

Twenty songs recorded all in one take to bring the spontaneous essence of life itself. With the intention to comfort earth life, escaping from any worries of the unknown. I wrote this music for you. I hope it gives you what you need in the moment.
Love always, Kimistry The Living Museum aka Kim Kalesti

“New Worlds Became Me” 

From the beginning of my quarantine in my New York City apartment, I found music and words to express each unexpected restrain that the virus presents us. Quarantined, masked, distanced from one another is the new reality. Fighting an invisible enemy while Mother Nature flourishes.

Eleven tranquil lullaby songs 
“New Worlds Became Me”

Without The Sun

Im Just Gonna Share My Love With You

Kim Kalesti gentle spirited lullaby songs expressed with her voice and minimal piano colorations.

all I need to keep on going

Not a single word fits, to describe a feeling.
