Poem:
Emily Elizabeth Dickinson  was an American poet. Little-known during her life, she has since been regarded as one of the most important figures in American poetry.

In this poem, Dickinson discusses her love for a man. She is jealous of everything around him, the water "He rides", the Chariots, the hills that watch him going by, the sparrows, the fly, even the leaves.
"I envy Seas, whereon He rides --" can be seen as a love poem for a man, but it can also be seen as a religious poem. The mention of Heaven and Gabriel can easily make this connection. The love of God and the love of everything he created.

I envy seas whereon he rides

I envy seas whereon he rides,
I envy spokes of wheels
Of chariots that him convey,
I envy speechless hills

That gaze upon his journey;
How easy all can see
What is forbidden utterly
As heaven, unto me!

I envy nests of sparrows
That dot his distant eaves,
The wealthy fly upon his pane,
The happy, happy leaves

That just abroad his window
Have summer’s leave to be,
The earrings of Pizarro
Could not obtain for me.

I envy light that wakes him,
And bells that boldly ring
To tell him it is noon abroad,—
Myself his noon could bring,

Yet interdict my blossom
And abrogate my bee,
Lest noon in everlasting night
Drop Gabriel and me

I envy seas whereon he rides. Torbjørn Vagle, Ad Van Nederpelt, Oddrun Eikli.

Piano Solo No. 14

Piano/String piece followed by improvised piano variations at 3:59 et seq.

Failed to make any progress today on a cello piece...which may explain why I let loose here at 3:59 et seq. The improv is not strictly 'congruent', but I got so fed up trying to play a real cello, I blasted out the improv anyway. I deleted the real cello (my playing was abyssmal) and replaced with cello samples in this piece

Vocals taken from ghosthack's sample library "Skyrealm", as well as some inspirational MIDI over which I layered my own VST instruments. In this respect not a real composition by me. Thanks for listening anyway 😌

❤️Love, 🕊️Peace, 🙏Respect

Here are the Liner Notes for this CD.

In the depths of musical exploration, where genre boundaries dissolve and creativity reigns supreme, emerges Shekinah Fire – a dynamic collaboration between improvisational pianist Gary Courtland-Miles and guitarist Tim Elliot. With their debut album, "Beyond Belief," they invite listeners on an exhilarating journey through a fusion of classical, jazz, and orchestral improvisational music.

Over the course of the past year, Courtland-Miles and Elliot have forged a partnership grounded in mutual trust, an unspoken agreement in spirit, and a fearless willingness to 'fall off musical cliffs together.' The result? Over 40 unique and passionately crafted compositions that defy categorization and transcend conventional reference points.

At the heart of Shekinah Fire's music lies a palpable sense of wonder, freshness, and authenticity. Each track unfolds with an undeniable sense of spontaneity, guided by the duo's intuitive connection and shared musical vision. Whether navigating intricate melodies or delving into soul-stirring improvisations, Courtland-Miles and Elliot infuse every note with heart and soul.

Recorded at "The Living Room" in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, "Beyond Belief" captures the raw energy and excitement of Shekinah Fire's live performances. Using only one stereo microphone, the album preserves the intimate atmosphere of the room, inviting listeners to immerse themselves fully in the magic of the moment.

Through a blend of electric and acoustic pianos and guitars, Courtland-Miles and Elliot weave a sonic tapestry that is as captivating as it is transcendent. Each composition is a testament to the duo's boundless creativity and unwavering commitment to artistic exploration.

So, dear listener, heed the call to adventure. Let go of preconceived notions and surrender to the spellbinding allure of Shekinah Fire's "Beyond Belief." For in the realm of music that is 'beyond belief,' there are no limits – only endless possibilities waiting to be discovered.

Noyes for this Track

Here's the 'abridged version' of Beyond Belief. Part One, so to speak.

As with most of our improvised music, it starts where Belief gives way to the Experience of Being in the moment and engaging in Deep Listening.

We trust you'll enJoy this latest of the 'musical conversations' Tim Elliot and I delight in whenever we have the chance.
