Seaside Morning

This is my single, Anesthesia. This is an original song, that is written and recorded by Calyx Kreations Music Label. The production is done by Astral Realm Beats and Calyx Kre. 

After I had released Anesthesia, I knew I wanted to continue with opera and I wanted to take my creativity to the next level. I'm working towards getting into an opera production alone with working with a new opera coach, building my career as a social media manager in the music industry along with developing my craft as an opera vocalist in my own music.

Philosopher's Stone (For three guitars)

With great sadness I announce the passing of my good friend, bandmate, and Soundcloud artist, mandolinist Patrick Howell.  Some of you knew of his valiant battle with cancer and supported him in prayer and the warmest of well wishes.  He succumbed to the disease July 17, 2023 surrounded by a loving family who helped usher him into the presence of the Lord Jesus.  Besides being a beloved friend and brother in Christ, he was also a muse for me, challenging me to take his little "ditties" and make them into songs.  I will be featuring those songs in the coming weeks in my "Spotlight", but for now I pay tribute to his life and talent with how he beautifully decorated this special song two years ago with his playing.  Rest in the sweetest peace my friend until the Lord awakens you.

Fall Into Autumn

In the days of yore, before Halloween become a festival for ghouls, ghosts and goblins, ‘hallows’ meant ‘holy’ and it was a sacred celebration of the rebirth of the Celtic Lord of Winter, Gwyn ap Nudd, as the constellation of Orion rose above the horizon in the night skies. 

Lyrics:

All Hallows Eve! The stars are brightly shining ....
in celebration of Lord Gwyn’s rebirth.
Sages gaze into embers divining ...
and dreaming of the winter king of Earth. 
 Dark is the night; its cloak is black as coal,
And only the fiery eyes of dragons glow, 
But something is stirring, a flame is igniting 
Under the ‘neath roots of Paradise below. 
Oh night, oh holy night, oh night divine!

O Samhain eve! Our hearts are loudly beating ....
 like shamans’ drums, to augur your return,  
The gentle folk are stoking their hearths for greeting  ...
the blessed Guardian of the great stag Herne.  
Our fields lay fallow; our crops are gathered up,  
And now the gales and winds of winter knock.  
But something is stirring, a flame is igniting ....
under the ‘neath roots of Paradise below.  
Oh night, oh holy night, oh night divine!  

O Halloween! The giant Orion is rising ......
from Eridanus, to take his winter throne. 
 In his belt, three kings are on their camels riding,
Bearing myrrh, and frankincense and gold.  
Cetus the Whale dives through the starry deeps,  
While we down here in the Land of Nod sleep... 
 As into our dreamscapes, flames your sacred wisdom, 
 And your love, your love, your love for all mankind.  
 Unto us a star is born! Oh, it is SUCH a night divine!

"REFLECTING THE SKY" - the 12th track from "Metamorfosi" album telling the story of a composer who wanted to write music for "Alice in Wonderland" and found herself falling through a rabbit hole opened in her piano. This track is the chapter where the Composer-Alice brings peace to the “Metamorfosi” land.

---

This story is not about Alice. Although, we’ve all had Alice in our lives. As well as the Cheshire Cat, Mad Hatter, Queen of Hearts and Jabberwocky, in one form or another. This story is about you. This story is about me.

My life has been swirling around Wonderland for a long time. I have two cats who are as mischievous as Cheshire’s smile. I have Mad Hatter for a husband, crazy enough to believe in three impossible things before breakfast and all day long, and even crazier to make them real. I have Tweedledee and Tweedledum for kids, complementing each other in curious ways. I have my own inner demons to fight against, be it the Red Queen or Jabberwocky.

Together with my Mad Hatter we’ve been playing this eternal chess game of Metamorphosis, transforming dreams into reality. We both felt like Alice’s story just wanted to hatch through our music into the wonder of this world. And it finally did, bending time and reflecting the sky. All we had to do is making the choice to follow the White Rabbit down the Rabbit Hole. It took us to places we’ve never been before. And this journey becomes Curiouser and Curiouser ever.

We are all mad here!

The Other Journey

"The Other Journey" from "Metamorfosi" by Milana Zilnik

Mary's song of joy about her pregnancy, while at the house of her cousin Elizabeth.  Also known as the Song of Mary and the Canticle of Mary and, in the Byzantine tradition, the Ode to the Theotokos. It is one of the eight most ancient Christian hymns and perhaps the earliest Marian hymn.

Words from Luke 1:46-55, New Testament: 

My soul does magnify the Lord. And my spirit has rejoiced in God my Saviour. For he has regarded the lowliness of his handmaiden. For behold, from henceforth, all generations shall call me blessed.

Magnificat anima mea Dominum.  Et exsultavit spiritus meus in Deo salutari meo.  Quia respexit humilitatem ancillae suae.  Ecce enim, ex hoc beatam me dicent omnes generationes.


For he that is mighty has magnified me.   And holy is his Name. And his mercy is on them that fear him, throughout all generations. He has shown strength with his arm.   He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

Quia fecit mihi magna, qui potens est.  Et sanctum nomen eius.  Et misericordia eius in progenies et progenies timentibus eum. Fecit potentiam in brachio suo.  Dispersit superbos mente cordis sui.


He has put down the mighty from their seats: and has exalted the humble and meek. He has filled the hungry with good things: and the rich he has sent empty away. He remembering his mercy has helped his servant Israel: As he promised to our forefathers, Abraham and his seed for ever. 

Deposuit potentes de sede, et exaltavit humiles. Esurientes implevit bonis et divites dimisit inanes. Suscepit Israel puerum suum, recordatus misericordiae suae.  Sicut locutus est ad patres nostros, Abraham, et semini eius in saecula.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son: and to the Holy Ghost; As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be: world without end.   Amen.

Gloria Patri, et Filio, et Spiritui Sancto. Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula saeculorum.

Magnificat

JERUSALEM CALLING

DISCLAIMER-- I mix and master this sound specifically using Audio Technica ATH-M20x Professional Monitor Headphones through a  Focusrite Scarlett Solo 4th Gen USB Audio Interface.   Also if its played through external speakers it probably sounds garbage.  It's mixed and mastered on headphones for headphones.
