That's amore - ROCCO GRANATA

Ship of Freedom

Streaming links below.

“But even so, every now and then I would feel a violent stab of loneliness. The very water I drink, the very air I breathe, would feel like long, sharp needles. The pages of a book in my hands would take on the threatening metallic gleam of razor blades. I could hear the roots of loneliness creeping through me when the world was hushed at four o'clock in the morning.”

If you're still looking for a happy ending I suggest you start searching for a new beginning.

A New Beginning

I'm away from the piano at the moment, so I thought I'd share this with everybody...

Compositional sketch for a modern Pastoral Appassionata String Quintet.  Primary composition sometime in November 2013.  Work in progress.

Somebody asked if this is a "sad" song.  Here is my answer:

It is not a "human emotion" song.   It is more a divine/nature/universe  song.  It does not have human emotions like happy/sad.  It has only what is.  It has only pure beauty. Like a waterfall.  Or a mountain.  Or a star. A waterfall is not sad.  Or happy.  It only is. It is simply pure beauty.

Pastoral = of or referring to nature or the creator

Appassionata = with passion  (but in this case, it is not passion like between a man and woman.  it is more passion of the creator for his creation or created for his creator.)

It is more of a spiritual music.  This is what I will do more of later in life. Like these guys:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holy_minimalism

I aspire to follow in their footsteps one day.

Somebody asked about the plug-ins used:

Solo Bass, Cello, Viola, Violin 1, & Violin 2 from NI Kontact (standard set from Komplete) for this sketch.  Sometime later I will ideally record the real thing... (Or at least use more advanced string libraries.) 6 Instances of 2CAudio Breeze (which I am the developer of) are used here to make the Kontact Strings sound reasonably good.

The strings samples themselves are not that good.  The reverb is!  :)  That's the trick here.



Many new solo piano compositions to share with you all soon!  Happy New Year!

Gaze:

I stood, I watched
The world tether me
Pursuits of survival to gravity
Though I may only know its weakest part
It is a stronghold, a wall towering over my heart
But when I look past to horizons untouched
I long to gaze down from above
I listen, I wait
Until I flow from this place into another
I sigh, I cry
I gaze

8Dio Claire Oboe Virtuoso: "Old Pictures From Europe" by Mikolai Stroinski

where the winds lay, 
afar then new....
a dancing cloud could take me away 
...... across a room
 a shadow that shapes life...
mountain meadows melt in me....
as smoke rings sing and dance 
they mention another romance!
....across a room  
eyes that hide a love 
hanging on conjured words
sending follies blessed as gifts
to know......
the hollow man 
could be filled 
with light and song.....

a single word that could light a room, 
hovers close to the melting moon
......to amuse you!
