***

I don't know what to do 
You're always on my mind 
I try to keep it cool 
But I feel smaller than a dime 
'Coz when I get out there in a world so unfair 
I don't know what to do 
You are the vicious kind 

I try to give you a clue 
But you don't believe 
And I'm trying to get through 
But you lie and deceive 
But I will show you how your bullshit won't stop me 
And I will give you a clue 
I will make you believe 

You may think I'm ambitious 
And that I don't know the world 
But little man you are vicious 
Around your finger I twirl 
And when you walk outside with your high fashion news 
You think you're so delicious 
You think that I'm just a girl 

So you're gonna watch me make it over 
That big, wide darkness you call life 
And I won't even take cover 
Because dull is your knife 
And when you come at me with your tender words, I swear 
You will never be my lover 
For the rest of this life 
For the rest of this life 
For the rest of this life

Karavan

Karavan - La Experiencia

Composed in 1999. Commissioned by the National Youth Orchestra of Wales and performed by them at St David's Hall Cardiff conducted by Christopher Adey. 

The starting point for this work is Italo Calvino’s novel of the same name which deals, on the surface, with Marco Polo’s descriptions to Kubla Khan of the fantastical cities which he has seen on his many travels. Although he describes many cities he is, in fact, describing many facets of the same city, Venice.

The sub-plot of the novel deals with people’s varying perceptions of the same scene and also with perceptions of time and its continuity. This problem of a single scene causing different reactions and emotions in different people lends itself, musically, to a continuous process of symphonic variations where the same material is woven together to form diverse images.

I was further influenced by a visit to the “Venice through Canaletto’s Eyes” exhibition at the National Gallery. Canaletto’s paintings with their intense detail depict the glory of Venice but it is a Venice that never existed as he painted it. Many of his views are painted from impossible viewpoints with obstructing buildings removed or with the perspective altered so as to show more of the scene than is actually visible. These paintings are a tangible example of what Calvino is describing, the view as Canaletto perceived it not as it actually was. I was particularly impressed by both “The Stonemason’s Yard” and, more importantly, “A Regatta on the Grand Canal” and had these in mind during various stages of the composition.

I was also conscious of the musical history of Venice and the many composers who have been associated with it. It is possible to discern the ghostly shadows of some of these composers moving through these invisible cities should one wish to look for them.

The work is continuous and is cast in four sections, Moderato; Allegro malevolente; Lento tranquillo; and Allegro giocoso.

The musical material is derived from a specially derived set of note-rows which have been manipulated to provide the threads with which the fabric is constructed. These note-rows are used contrapuntally and have no bearing on the harmonic (vertical) structure of the work but are linked to the tonal scheme of the sections. The form is derived from Venice’s golden period with much use of canzona, fugue, ostinato and ritornelli.

I have chosen the following descriptions from Calvino’s text as my images whilst composing this work. They are not necessarily presented here in the same order as the music as the listener should feel free to conjure their own images according to their perception of the music.

“...three soldiers on a platform played the trumpet, and all around wheels turned and colored banners fluttered in the wind.”

“...there is the great roller coaster with its steep humps, the carousel with its chain spokes, the Ferris wheel of spinning cages, the death-ride with crouching motorcyclists, the big top with the clump of trapezes hanging in the middle.”

“...most of the corpses are seated around laden tables, or placed in dancing positions, or made to play little trumpets...”

“...the city visible when you lean out from the edge of the plateau at the hour when the lights come on, and in the limpid air, the pink of the settlement can be discerned spread out in the distance below: where the windows are more concentrated, where it collects the shadows of gardens, where it raises towers with signal fires; and if the evening is misty, a hazy glow swells like a milky sponge...”

“At times the wind brings a music of bass drums and trumpets, the bang of firecrackers in the light-display of a festival; at times the rattle of guns...”

“Recurrent invasions racked the city...in the centuries of its history; no sooner was one enemy routed than another gained strength and threatened the survival of the inhabitants."

Nocturne#1

Order the 7" and Digi-EP at the Bastard Jazz Shop - https://potatoheadpeople.bandcamp.com/album/kosmichemusik-ep

Just in time for Valentine's day, Bastard Jazz is proud to present a lovesick 7" debut from Vancouver/Montreal duo Potatohead People (aka producers Nick Wisdom & AstroLogical). The duo has been making waves for quite some time now through their slew of releases with netlabel Jellyfish Recordings before getting picked up by the Brooklyn based label.

On the "A" side of the 7", "Back To My Shit" is a lovelorn tale of breakup and redemption featuring the rhymes of Detroit's Frank Nitt (Frank'n'Dank, J. Dilla) with very catchy yet deep synth-heavy production from the Potatohead People. On the flip sidem, we continue the theme with "Love Hz", an instrumental cut with crispy drums, ghostly vocal stabs, a catchy bubbling bassline and pulsing keyboards.

A lovely piece of wax dedicated to the unrequited love in our lives.

#PianoDay2020

Akira Kosemura - Asymptote

After taking a long break last summer and fall from composing, I started again in earnest at the end of the year.  Rather than rush a piece out, I decided to take time and really invest in a work.  This first movement of my 4th Symphony is the result - and other movements are well underway too.  I hope that the end result will be a Symphony that I can finally be proud of.  Time will tell.

During the development of this movement, I had the good fortune to receive the very generous and insightful guidance from the marvelous and rightfully accomplished composer John Hopkins @john-hopkins-941786350, particularly with regard to the movement's structure.
 
I am very thankful to John.  I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all the other people that have helped me along the way.  Starting with my wonderful twin sister Catherine who showed me how to start playing the piano.  My dear and kind friend Jonathon Chappell who wrote out my first score.  The wonderful person and composer Rob Wilsmore who gave me great encouragement. Nerissa Dando, the violaist who so kindly was first to play a piece of mine.  The violinist Claire Sharpe and the composer John Webb @webb-john who played my piano and violin piece, and also especially to Claire who introduced me to the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra.  It was watching the CBSO and Simon Rattle's face from student seats behind the orchestra that taught me so much about symphonic music.

From more recent years I will like to thank Tom Foley who gave me my first DAW software so I could finally start writing what I could not play.  Then I would very much like to thank all the SoundCloud community for their generous support and wonderful feedback.  I would particularly like to mention the very talented composer Joseph Haspel @joseph-haspel who has so generously performed a piano work of mine and has helped clean up several piano scores.  Finally, I would like to thank the superb composer Paul Max Edlin @paulmaxedlin who has given great advice and encouragement, has so generously worked on scores of mine and was planning to have a piece of mine performed until Covid19 came along.

Given that I have never studied music, nor was ever taught to play an instrument, I greatly appreciate  everyone who has helped and encouraged me along my musical journey. Thank you.

Finally, I would like to especially thank my amazing and beautiful wife, and my lovely sons and stepsons.

Hope you enjoy the work.  And as always, thank you so much for listening.

Be well.
Christopher
