Moog Grandmother, Digitakt and Some Filtered Cello

Hidden

This was recorded in the early 90's at Triad Studios with Nick Moore on piano. This version has the original lyrics that T.R. gifted to me. 

"The sky is bluer 
For the brave — for the brave and 
Happy comrades and for the 
Lonely brave retreating warriors. 
You had a good life. Even all 
Its sorrows and defeats and 
Disillusionments were good, 
Met with courage and a gay heart. 
You are gone and we are that 
Much more alone. We are one fewer..."
—Kenneth Rexroth

iPad Musician Contest Entry. Very simple, nothing else I want to add to it.

iPad Musician Contest - Here Comes the Sun

This track was created for the iPad Musician Soundscaper Contest. The premise was to create the most experimental 1 and a half minutes of sound that you could. I was limited to the 8 tracks in the daw because Auria was not behaving for me. I used a variety of instruments recorded with my Apogee Jam audio midi interface and the lightening adapter. I first recorded the Korg Monotribe. The next track was the Gakken Sx-150 Mk 2 through the Korg KP3 played with the stylus. Then I recorded the Stylophone using the stylus and run through the KP3. Next couple of tracks utilized the Korg Wave Drum mini played live.  Then I played the Korg Monotron through the KP3 and Then I took the clip from the Wave Drum and attached to the neck of my Mandolin and played that for a couple of tracks and it produced a weird sitar type of sound. I then mixed it and sent it to Audio Mastering and then uploaded directly to soundcloud. Thanks for listening.

Forward to the dream

"Song in a Time of Depression" is from Tim Keyes's: Symphony in C: The Earth Whispers –  A Song of Native North American Peoples. 

"The inspiration for this symphony comes from the Indigenous people of North America.  This large scale work has been composed as a collection of ‘songs’ that aim to honor the traditions, beliefs, and aspirations of America’s Native Peoples. 
 
"The composition is the result of years of research and discovery of the songs and sounds created by North American tribes. The sound world of the Native Americans consists of vocal chanting, the 5 hole flute (pentatonic scale), and various percussion instruments (Rattles, drums, etc.).  Symphony in C does not strive to imitate the stereotypical sound of Hollywood movies from the 1930’s to the 1950’s.  In creating this work it was my goal to imbed elements of the native sound world into an orchestral fabric in such a way as to create a sophisticated blend of new textures.  
 
"The texts in Symphony in C come from various sources.  Some are in translation, some are from English speaking Natives, and some are original, assembled from various Native writings.  Each movement pays homage to important aspects of the Native’s life: Love, Loss, Wonder, and Praise.
 
"It is my hope that this composition will enlighten and inspire a greater respect for those people who are the first great Americans."
                                                                                    – Tim Keyes

About Maria Calfa-DePaul: Singer/Songwriter Maria Calfa-DePaul spent her childhood in Brooklyn and then Suffern, NY where she currently resides with her husband and two  sons. Her interest in musical performance began in college where she minored in music and continued into her early thirties when she worked as a Wandering Minstrel. 
 In 1997 she developed a cyst on her vocal cords which made it impossible for her to continue singing but her passion for songwriting never diminished. Thanks to successful vocal cord surgery in September 2005 and subsequent speech therapy Maria is once again able to perform. Maria entertains at various venues in Rockland and Westchester Counties. Her self produced CD “Moments Of Happiness” contains 10 original songs and is available at cdbaby and iTunes.  Recently, Maria was honored with having one of her songs: Silent Prayer place in the top 5 songs for the spiritual/gospel category in the International “Song of the Year Contest” a sponsor of VH1 Saves the Music. Being given a second chance to entertain is a fulfillment of a life long dream for this grateful singer/songwriter.
