Thirty Love Songs, Baby

I wanted to write a trio piece for piano, flute and clarinet and thought a lullaby would work. I had wonderful memories of trying to get my daughter to sleep when she was around one. It always seemed that just as I thought she had fallen asleep, she would open her eyes and say “da-da” and then want to play. This piece features Davide Bonomo on flute and Iván Villar-Sanz on clarinet.

I try not to remember
That smile of yours so bright
I try to hide your picture
That I stare at each night
I try not to think of you
When I’m all alone
But all I do is think of you
And wish you were my own

I try not to remember
Those moments we did share
I try not to remember
Those days that you were there
I can’t forget those eyes
I can’t forget those eyes
I try, try, try

I do everything I can
To help you leave my mind
And I just can’t understand
Why I still pray that you were mine
You were mine

Those eyes are the eyes
That I want to wipe the tears from
Those eyes are the eyes
That I want to take the fear from
Those eyes, eyes
Those eyes
Those eyes
I can’t forget those eyes

RELEASED ON SOUNDCLOUD: September 28, 2023

Those Eyes - DuBrae Mix

During high school, I lived with my sister and her son (my nephew). We lived next to Salem River, and my bedroom window faced west. We had so many wonderful sunsets. My sister would often make us stop what we were doing to look out the window to watch the very end of the sunset. 

Years passed, I moved away, my nephew moved away, but my sister remained. 

Those sunsets made such an impression on me, I got married at my sister’s house along the river at sunset. 

In 2017 my sister passed away and my nephew moved back into our old home.  Then in March of 2022 my nephew began photographing that same setting sun that I would watch thirty-five years earlier. Sadly, he passed that December.

As I was working on this project it struck me, I should compose a piece about that sunset.  I always saw the sun as struggling to stay afloat with even moments of almost violent outburst of rays of light as it grasped to linger just a little longer.  So, this piece represents that wonderful sun of my youth (and now my senior years) doing its best to give us just a few more moments of its beautiful and warm light and a few more moments of life.

This piece features Davide Bonomo on flute, Manuel Domènech on english horn and oboe as well ass Javier Cereceda on bassoon.

This is the demo of our upcoming release, "You're My Something Something".

You're My Something Something

This is a song I created with a good friend of mine at work. We work the opposite shift, but we always run into each other. We had an immediate connection and the lyrics I wrote matched up almost perfectly with what he wanted to do with the song. We hope to do more and start recording stuff together but it's been really tough with life. Life gets so busy sometimes, and you just gotta keep rolling with the punches. 
Lyrics:
The Change is gonna come, Gods will be done

Wish I could control these emotions but my mind is over flowin, I keep grasping at these feelings, but life just keeps on stealing, them away, wish they would stay, but now the mood has altered, and I might have faltered, but we all know that like the setting sun, that one day the change is gonna come.

Feelings fleeting fast, tried to make it last in a second ripped outta my grasp, now I’m mad Thinkin bout what I had and It’s so sad, my bad, go ahead and laugh, trying everything just to get back on track

Got myself in a pickle, but no it don’t tickle, it’s making me brittle watching these tears trickle man I’m being so fickle, sick of feelin so little, life is such a riddle, maybe I’m the one who’s artificial. 

endlessly flippin Once again I’m trippin, and once it’s goin it goes On and on like dominos, Each thought in a different direction Each session a different expression Each moment another infection 

Settin in, getting septic now It’s so toxic how, I can’t block it out Can’t stop it wow It’s clearly me, eerily, I’m comfortably sailing these seas More easily than thee. And what you can’t see

is that maybe It comes so naturally because you casually be interrupting me, disrespecting me and I just take it see. Sadly, I can’t seem to find the seam to patch up These feelings takin me places I don’t wanna be. 

Livin life on the edge livin dangerously Truthfully that’s the thing that twists these thoughts together, the toxic traits that took to and tethered. So interconnected. It’s Like I’m plugged into your hard drive and to feel alive 

I kept it encrypted inside, so you can’t disconnect it. Maybe I’m the virus, but in spite of this, I find bliss in your lips. A simple kiss to save all of this. But watch out for the twist

moods start flippin, I start slippin, give in to sippin, bottles I’m rippin, constantly sinnin, if only I’d listen, that ain’t really livin, gotta ask to be forgiven. Cuz it’s not all about the liquor or the women.

How you be feelin, life keeps on dealin, demons be appealing, you’re hooked and they’re reeling, so good at concealing, always double dealing, but watch out it’s your soul they be stealin.

Wish I could control these emotions but my mind is over flowin, I keep grasping at these feelings, but life just keeps on stealing, them away, wish they would stay, but now the mood has altered, and I might have faltered, but we all know that like the setting sun, that one day change is gonna come.

Change gon come gods will be done Hey all Change gon come gods will be done, saying change gon come gods will be done, gods will, gods will be done

The Change Is Gonna Come (Music by Michael Murray)

I wrote this contemporary jazz piece after watching Rick Beato's wonderful interview with Keith Jarrett. This features Ric Fierabracci on bass, Larry Salzman on percussion and Mannuel Trabucco on soprano sax.

Looking To Allentown

그는 신에게 홀려 있었다.

신을 찬양하는 목소리로

중력을 지배해 빛들을 뭉개버렸다.

눈물이 독이 되어버린 

그녀는 그런 그에게

손을 내밀어 주었다. 


구름이 멈추고

별들이 달을 체웠다.

바닥도 길을 잃고선

어둠과 섞여버렸다.


진흙으로 덮혀있는 내 영혼은

지옥에서 볼태워져

작은 항아리로써

신에게 바쳐졌다.


독이 되어버린

그녀의 눈물은

진흙의 덮혀있는 내 영혼을

별처럼 반짝이게 해줬었다.
