Painting: Water Lillies, 1906
Evanescence: the quality of being fleeting or vanishing quickly, impermanence.
Oscar-Claude Monet (November 14th, 1840 – December 5th, 1926) was a French painter and founder of impressionist painting who is seen as a key precursor to modernism, especially in his attempts to paint nature as he perceived it. During his long career, he was the most consistent and prolific practitioner of impressionism's philosophy of expressing one's perceptions before nature, especially as applied to outdoor landscape painting.  In 1899, he began painting the water lilies that would occupy him continuously for the next 20 years of his life.  At his home in Giverny, Monet created the water-lily pond that served as inspiration for his water lilly paintings. Depictions of the water lilies, with alternating light and mirror-like reflections, became an integral part of his work.  By the mid-1910s Monet had achieved "a completely new, fluid, and somewhat audacious style of painting in which the water-lily pond became the point of departure for an almost abstract art.  He would ultimately make over 250 paintings of the Waterlilies.  In 1911, Monet began to develop the first signs of possible cataracts.  In the following years, his perception of color suffered; his broad strokes were broader and his paintings were increasingly darker.  He eventually underwent cataract surgery in 1923.  Now "able to see the real colors", he began to destroy canvases from his pre-operative period.  Upon receiving tinted Zeiss lenses, Monet was pleased with the results, although his left eye soon had to be entirely covered by a black lens. By 1925, his visual impairment was improved and he began to retouch some of his pre-operative works, with bluer water lilies than before.  Monet died of lung cancer on December 5th 1926 at the age of 86.  Although critical acclaim was slow in coming, Monet attracted the dedicated support of collectors throughout his career, most notably from Americans who discovered his work in the 1880s.  Monet's popularity soared in the second half of the 20th century, when his works traveled the world in museum exhibitions that attracted record-breaking crowds and marketed popular commercial items featuring imagery from his art.

Art Expressed in Music - Monet's Evanescence Feat. Oddrun Eikli

De nos jours, chacun d'entre nous accomplit des choses bien plus spectaculaires et plus complexes que par le passé. Savoir  imaginer, motiver, coordonner, sont pour beaucoup d'entre nous des objectifs.
Mais au présent, il faut reconnaître, que chacun « travaille » pour soi, et que hélas, les États se substituent aux volontés collectives et, l’individualisme est devenu roi. Chacun paie sa redevance dans tous les domaines et considère ainsi, avoir sa part de bonheur, sa part de liberté ....
Nous déléguons de ce fait, toutes les taches de la vie collective, et même trop souvent de la vie domestique, perdant ainsi la capacité d'avoir un semblant d'autonomie, et devenant dépendant de l'argent …. nous empilons les chèques, avec l'espoir d'une certaine tranquillité de vivre. Est-ce vraiment une bonne chose ? 
Je vous laisse méditer sur ces quelques lignes ....

Maintenant pour parler, de ce qui nous intéresse musicalement ici, vous pouvez écouter de cette nouvelle collaboration, avec notre ami David, qui donne avec sa guitare, tout son sens à cette logique harmonique conçue en égard à cette voix si belle et particulière de Clara Sorace.

Merci David d'avoir usé de ton temps pour cette excellente collaboration ….

*********************************************************************************************************

These days, each and every one of us achieves far more spectacular and complex things than in the past. Knowing how to imagine, motivate and coordinate is a goal for many of us.
But in the present, we have to recognize that everyone is "working" for himself, and that, alas, states are replacing collective wills, and individualism has become king. Everyone pays his or her dues in all areas, and thus considers that they have their share of happiness, their semblance of freedom ....
As a result, we delegate all the tasks of collective life, and all too often even domestic life, thus losing the ability to have any semblance of autonomy, and becoming dependent on money .... we pile up cheques, in the hope of a certain peace of living. Is this really a good thing? 
I'll leave you to meditate after reading these few lines ....

Now to talk about what interests us musically here, you can listen to this new collaboration, with our friend David, who gives with his guitar, all its meaning to this harmonic logic conceived in consideration of Clara Sorace's so beautiful and particular voice.

Thank you David for responding positively to my request, and for giving up your time for this excellent collaboration ....

Shadow Or Light .... With David Dunham & Clara Sorace

A punk rock cover of my favorite rockabilly singer, Eddie Cochran. I found this recording from 2016 while sorting through my old stuff and thought you might enjoy it! Listening back to it, I was surprised at the energetic way I sang. It's funny, back then, I never imagined I would be writing songs in English like I am now!

When you say that you love me, what I feeling I get,
When you say that our love is forever, I'm so glad that we met,
It makes me so happy, to have a love we can share,
Life can be so wonderful with something so precious and rare,

When you say that you want me, when you say that you care,
When you say that you can't live without me, and you'll always be there,
It makes me so happy, to have a love we can share,
Life can be so wonderful with something so precious and rare,

I'm like a love struck teenager in love for the very first time,
I hope this feeling lasts for my whole lifetime,

When you say that you love me, what I feeling I get,
When you say that our love is forever, I'm so glad that we met,
It makes me so happy, to have a love we can share,
Life can be so wonderful with something so precious and rare,
It makes me so happy, to have a love we can share,
Life can be so wonderful with something so precious and rare,

When You Say...

“Inspired by The Beatles and 90’s US Indie this is a song with an affirmation like chorus about being yourself.”

Open up 
Your words are all that matters
Open up
Let your heart sing and shatter
Open up 
I hope you look inside yourself and you finally see how much you matter 

Let yourself 
be yourself 
let yourself 
be yourself 

Open up 
Your eyes see the light in the shadows
Open up 
Don’t listen to words of all the others
Open up 
Keep on moving forward 
You have nothing to lose 
You have nothing to lose
