Name: Live Public Piano Improvisation - Varese Stazione Subway by No Mates Ensemble in the good stuff - volume one(7/14/19)
Duration: 2 min 37 s
Description: In Varese the Mayor thought it would be a wonderful idea to install a Piano in the underpass of the main train station for the public to play and 'beautify the neglected space'. I agree - a great idea, and intimidated as i was by some amazing players I heard whenever I passed through I thought I better have a little play : )

A beautiful, evocative piece. The ambient sounds of the station fix it to a time and place, while the music transcends both.

Beautiful piece 😍 🙏 🍀 🎶 🎧 

some beautiful stuff going on down in this Subway.. i really enjoy this mix...

a wonderful job you did on this improv in such a public space.........did you have a basic idea where you would start on this one?  or was it put your hands on the keyboard and just go?

Music from various artists I listen to while driving.

Nothing like a pesky raccoon to stir things up a bit… Oh, hello. Glad you dropped by. A raccoon, I named Bandit, has taken up a vacation residence under the shed here. It’s right next to the raspberry patch and apple trees. A couple nights ago, Bandit snuck into my small greenhouse, where I grow tomatoes and peppers, and made a salad of the pepper plants, munching one plant completely down to the stalk. Bandit also likes the heavy crop of choke cherries here. He also uses the back corner of the vegetable garden as a latrine, which last summer was up on the house roof. I’d awaken with a start to hear little footsteps running across the roof. Luckily no roof excursions this year. Anyway, this is a Blues song with some solo banjo. Lyrically, it has a couple of reflections about life, mortality, gardening, relationships and partner expectations, letting go of life dreams, a nod to Bandit, the wacky weather, and making peace with old age. And of course, there’s a fair amount of daydreaming going on, while plucking banjo. Hope all is going reasonably well with you, wherever you are on Earth, during this whirlwind tour we’re on. Mark

Tom's piano melodies are so inspirational, not just to me (Mark) but also to Jussi, Georg and Boon. The energy of this piece carried us all off on a wonderful journey. We hope you enjoy the joyful enthusiasm that Tom initiated. Tom also gave me the key line, 'My Way Through' and I had to run with it as it made so much sense with this uplifting and hopeful music. Thanks for listening.

Wherever you’re bound you know I’ll, 
Make my way through 
Sure may take a little while
 But I’ll make my way through

Wherever I’m bound I know I’ll,
 Make my way through
 It may take a longer while 
Till I make my way through

Wherever you’re bound,
…You’re bound
I know that I’m bound, yeah!

When I get there you know I’ll
Make my way through
Sure may need a broader smile
But I’ll make my way through.

L'homme des plages

dans un coquillage
dans le ventre d'un monstre marin
dans les sables mouvants
dans l'or noir et l'embrun
l'homme des plages repose

s'il n'est qu'un grain de sable
s'il n'est qu'un grain
son empreinte à laissé
autant qu'un ouragan
dans la mémoire des choses.

The Man of the Beaches

In a sea shell
In the belly of a sea monster
In quick sand
In black gold and in the ocean spray
The Man of the Beaches rests

Even if he is only a grain of sand
Even if he is only a grain
His footprints are left 
As much as a hurricane
In the memory of things.

L'homme des plages
