A few weeks ago my dear husband challenged me to compose a piece of music based on a painting fished out of the garbage can! Yes, really! From a real garbage can!

Not our garbage can, mind you! Unfortunately, as the painting is valued at US$340000. It is the (almost) lost work of surrealist artist Yves Tanguy (1900-55), a favorite of my husband. By the way the painting itself does not have a title and seems to be from 1937.

Lost & Found

The Art of the Forgotten

We live in uncertain times, more than ever.

I entitled my piece The Future That Never Was but it could as easily have been called "Pandemonium". 

Indeed, who really knows what the future holds for us?

The Future That Never Was

My piece is about what people should rise for, not against, to make our World a better place. It tries to convey a much needed sense of hope.

And perhaps more importantly than ever before during our lifetime, people everywhere should rise up for Peace!

This piece was created using mostly Soundiron's Core Micro library (for brass and strings) with some additional percussion and effects.

Rise Up!

In philosophy there's a concept called solipsism that can be simply summarized as the view that the self is all that can be known to exist, i.e. nothing exists outside of our own mind.

My track is the result of a self-reflection (yes, I see the irony!) about the state of our world, of our "interconnected isolation", of our misinformed understanding and how easily our networked minds can be fooled by propaganda, by disinformation, as words and ideas keep reverberating in our collective brain like inside an echo chamber.
