stanzas from this poem create the lyrics for the song
LONGEST NIGHT
https://nothingispersonal.wordpress.com/2016/08/21/the-shadows-of-our-love/

hey, i dealt you a hand
a hand of wishes
but the staff for the ridge
found you no wood

and the water under the bridge
offended you to boot
and the whole thing fell through.

i dealt a hand
at the bank
of this sinking beach

a hand that stuck
trembling between the breaks
pressing against our feat.

alongside privilege
blind hope feigns abundance,
a deep self betrayal seats itself
and faces you in the audience –
my eyes on you…

deal the hand
that holds me now?
the bridge that held us then?

your distance is a moon
that lit up the longest night

and I won’t deal
and I won’t gamble;
I won’t pretend
to know your plight.

The Longest Night | The Consolers

This was all played on guitar - the bell-like notes were a product of the tape delay degradation of the TC Electronic Triple Delay and a lot of patience.

Bells Merrily

RONNIE MARTIN - Lost Christmas Night

This track was recorded during lockdown with my mum recording voicenotes, it's recorded in Twi, and speaks of the importance of drums in African culture, especially with the arrival of dignitaries and kings. It speaks of my heritage as my father is of a royal household in Ghana, she refers to me using my Asante name, Kofi, the first line translates as "Kofi, you are of a royal household."

Journey Of The Drum

Kronos Quartet performs "Marejada," the most recent addition to Fifty for the Future: The Kronos Learning Repertoire. Composed by Puerto Rican–born, Brooklyn-based composer Angélica Negrón in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, the piece was specifically created to be played online, from separate locations via a video conferencing platform. Kronos describes “Marejada” as “a piece composed in this moment, and decidedly about and for this moment. We believe it is one of many creative and musical ways forward, out of our current isolation, and back into community.” 

You can learn to play this piece. FREE scores and parts, among other materials, are available online: 50ftf.kronosquartet.org
