Playful and imaginative. I like the dynamics.

This piece is inspiring. Inspired too. Thanks Marisa.

Masterpiece❣️🌹🌻👌🏽😎🙌🏽

Wow, really cool!! Great work, congrats!! What music software did you use for this?

This has to be my favorite work of yours. Simply brilliant Marisa!

Excellent composition  with a beautiful reminiscence on Beethoven!

This piece never gets old Marisa. I enjoy it time after time after time...

Excellent piece Mariza! It's a great idea to start with these 3 notes from Beethoven, the result is convincing!

Written for a family whose child has a medical problem, and because they were poor were were wrongly accused of it being the mother's fault. They battled the courts for four years.  He recently passed on from brainstem neurodegenerative disease that he had when the nightmare began.  Mayo Clinic now has his brain for research as his condition was so rare.

She’s a single mother with a very low income			
He’s an eight year old who knows there’s nothing that he’s done
To be torn from his mother, his sisters and his brother
It’s the only life he knew and he loved it like not other

But you don’t give up, you don’t give up, you don’t give up, or give in
You know; you don’t give up, you don’t give up, you don’t give up, or give in

We’re always thinking of you Aaron, you’re always on our mind
We know your lonely, you know we love you all the time
How can some strangers say what’s good for you or I
There’s one who knows best, look in the child’s eye

The world is crumbling round me, its in a dizzy spin
With all I see and hear, my heart is full and breaking
I could end up on a mountain top or in a deep prison
But I know I never, never give up or give in

But we won't give up, we won't give up, we won't give up, or give in
You know; we won't give up, we won't give up, we won't give up, or give in

Don't Give Up

'An Insubstantial Moment' .......a Smooth Jazz track.....

An Insubstantial Moment

The Person Behind Her Smile

method: adding voice and vst to a preexisting song
narration: One of the greatest creative artist on soundcloud, stonerjazz https://soundcloud.com/user-911083679/tracks, my friend Jeff, has composed a song shock full of paranoia, existential threat and hope for redemption and salvation - a truthful portrayal of the human condition. It is a mesmerizing work of art as it stands. When I approached him concerning a possible collab for my upcoming soundcloud-only album 'songs to pacify extraterrestrials' (out by the end of November 2023), he offered this to me. I was in a fix: How can you work on something that is already perfect, complete in itself?  Eventually, I decided to take a cynical approach and turn it into an intergalactic commercial for tooth --- no, fangpaste. There was a challenge in bringing about the non-music so typical for the advertising industry. Virtual midi-operated synthesizers helped. During gestation, I called those interludes and overlays PCBs, short for 'psychotic commercial break' or 'paranoid commercial breakdown'. They are of somewhat juvenile humor and also have some Douglas Adams vibes, I hope, Marvin-style. None of my recontextualization does the existential thrill (and especially the hope for liberation) of the original any justice at all - quite in the contrary. It was a morbid kind of fun to create, though ... and, to my utter astonishment, Jeff liked it and edged me on during the process. Well, here you are. It's (be)coming for you!

SPACERACE

DRUMAX No. 43 // SPACERACE

Composed and performed by Megan Jennifer Lewis.

Mastered by Chris Adams

I wanted to share this short piece with you that I composed and recorded a while ago.  I am a Kate Bush fan.  I am so inspired by her unbridled creativity.  

This piece was borne from my desire to allow my own creativity to flow from the inside, effortlessly and naturally.  This is one such piece.  I sat down at the piano, took a breath and relaxed.  This is what came out.

Oh Kate

This piece starts off from the repeating 4 notes of the 3rd movement from Beethoven's Tempest Sonata (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRoZgmqlfso) but takes off in a much different direction with new melodies. The piece borrows from Beethoven only those repeating 4 notes and the figuration of the left hand... everything else being my own. Though the feeling is overtly Beethovian too (with all due distances, of course)... And do you sometimes hear echoes of the Für Elise? (To my ear, the Für Elise itself has echoes of the Tempest's 3rd movement, even in its opening theme.)

The title "After the Tempest" has double meaning. It "takes after" Beethoven's Tempest's 3rd movement. And it also represents the sunlight and freshness felt after a storm's atmospheric depression has passed. Triple meaning, actually, as we endure this terrible worldwide depression and wish for the day it will past us somehow...

Played by software, sorry...

The painting shown is by Thomas Cole (1836), entitled "The Oxbow" and represents an oxbow in the Delaware River after a passing storm. Beethoven's Tempest sonata was written 1801-1802 and Für Elise dates from 1810.

After The Tempest (#piano)

can’t say goodbye, just good riddance to this year and glad for the departure. no fond farewell, au revoir, wiedersehen or さようなら to 2020. in the words of Ray Charles, just hit the road and don’t you come back no more, no more.

in spite of quarantine lockdowns and turmoil i’m grateful to have had the inspiring music of so many wonderful soundcloud musicians who kept on playing and creating music throughout a difficult year. special thanks to hitoshi yasui of chairhouse for his daily musical gems and for allowing us to create our versions of his beautiful piano music. looking forward to a better 2021 and wishing everyone a happy, healthy, peaceful and musical new year. play on friends. 

this orchestration and mix is by guillaume pearson, guitar arrangement & SFX by naldo, original song written by hitoshi yasui of chairhouse. his lovely piano version can be heard here: https://soundcloud.com/chairhouse/cant-say-goodbye-yet-419

close your eyes, it's a movie without pictures. the intro voice is Celia Johnson from the film Brief Encounter directed by the great David Lean. the cover art is Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard in their goodbye scene at a 1945 London train station.

Can't Say Goodbye

I am a scientist who started composing music as a hobby in 2013. I have not studied composition and do not approach it analytically, only intuitively. I took piano lessons in my childhood and teens, but spent most of my adult life without playing piano until 2013. So far I have composed mostly for piano, in a polyphonic style that borrows from the Baroque as well as the Romantic spirit. I describe my style as "Baroquemantic". 

Most of my piano pieces are easy to play.  Some are very easy to play.  

All of my pieces rely on 2 or more concurrent melodies (counterpoint).

A Portuguese guy called "Carlos Miguel" wrote the following on YouTube and  I think this is so so so so true! I will be quoting him everywhere I can:
"...a boa música é como as boas palavras, depende de quem as diz e de quem as ouve...podem não vir a ser nada e podem ser tudo...ou ambas as situações em simultâneo...genial também é quem ouve...pelo seu modo de ouvir... e não só quem  compõe...pelo seu modo de compor...Carlos Miguel"

Freely translated from Carlos Miguel: "...Good music is like good words... it depends on who utters and who listens... it can be nothing or it can be everything... or both simultaneously... for there to be a work of genius there needs to be a genius listener as well as a genius composer..."
