great!!! I love also unperfect recordings, really, ....

One of the great themes of all time played brilliantly! This theme has a dark side every time it rings I'm breathing behind me ... I do not know. Maybe you are just imaginations! Thanks to Fivos, I know you exist! What joy!

nice recording - it sounds a little bit like a historical recording on 78 vinyl:-)

I love this piece. We sang a version of it for chorus this semester. Beautiful recording! Lots of soul to it.

@ninth-pulse: Thanks, Alexander. I enjoyed playing this.

Ah, a great classic by a great composer. Wonderfully played.

I like your flavor of the melody and timing played here. Very nice.

Wonderfully played, Pam! :) One of my very favorite songs to cover :) 

beautiful, brings Porgy and Bess back to life.

------------------------------------------------

‘If This Were My Body’ (releasing on Lost Tribe Sound) is the first album from Canadian experimental cellist and composer Adrian Copeland under his given name. Some may be familiar with Copeland’s body of work as Alder & Ash. While the project has garnered attention from a wide range of musical communities ranging from metal to classical, the decision to release the new record apart from the works of his alias make sense. Though Copeland remains committed to the cello as the primary and only sound source, its an internal shift that has played the biggest part in shaping this album.

"If the music I wrote was my body, how would I use it to tell stories? Would I fight with others, would I hurt myself, would I yell or would I cry? On this album, I wanted to reclaim my body as an instrument of gentleness and love. Too often, the male body is objectified as a tool of violence and hate, and we don't often have the chance to learn what it means to love as men. My own relationship with my body is marked with bitterness, self hatred, and shame. This album "If This Were My Body" is an unlearning of all the violence I've inflicted and all the violence that's been inflicted on me. It's a celebration of another way of being, one of vulnerability and tenderness.

There is a triumph here that doesn't exist on my previous albums. There are moments of sadness and intensity, but it's overwhelmingly an album about love, specifically self love. During this period I was undergoing a period of transformation and relearning my relationship to myself, my work, and most importantly, my body. I wanted to release this album under my own name, as it felt more vulnerable to do so. There is no artifice to hide my emotions”

GRACE GILLESPIE - After The Harvest Moon

Honestly, I’ve been taking my time
Shining my armour, rolling my blinds
Honestly, I’ve not made up my mind
All bets are off, like it or not
 
But under the summer sun
And under the winter moon
Your love is enough 
Not too late, not too soon
 
Honestly, I hope everything changes
Humanity goes through its phases
Probably we’ve been stuck in a jar
Trapped here by creatures from Saturn or mars
 
And under our glassy shell
And facing our certain doom
Your love is enough 
Not too late, not too soon
 
And with nothing above us and nothing below
Nothing to do and nowhere to go
Hang in the balance 
I love you just the same
Just the same (I love you just the same)
 
Honestly, I’ve been taking my time
Oiling my joints, writing my rhymes
Suddenly I’ve made up my mind
The penny has dropped, like it or not

But under the summer sun
And under the harvest moon
Your love is enough 
Not too late, not too soon

And waking the same old day
And sitting in this here room
Your love is enough 
Not too late, not too soon

After The Harvest Moon

The track Is inspired by a famous artwork by sculptor Giacomo Manzù "the Painter and the Model" which was commissioned by an important Italian art gallery called "Raccolta Lercaro". The track is about the alchemy that is generated between a Model and the Painter who is portraying her, uniting the senses, creating a dance in a parallel dimension that is exclusive to them. The music uses a technique that mixed sampled and recorded done, and it lies between neoclassical post-minimal music and ambient music.
_______
Il brano trae ispirazione da una famosa opera d’arte dello scultore Giacomo Manzù “Il pittore e la Modella”, commissionato da un importante galleria d’arte Italiana, “Raccolta Lercaro”. 
Il brano racconta dell’alchimia che si genera tra la modella e il pittore nell'atto di ritrarla, creando un unione di sensi, una danza in una dimensione parallela che appartiene solo a loro due. La musica utilizza una tecnica mista tra suoni campionati e suoni reali, è borderline tra la musica neoclassica post-minimale e l’ambient music.

Lyrics by DuBose Heyward:

Summertime,
And the livin' is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mamma's good lookin'
So hush little baby
Don't you cry

One of these mornings
You're going to rise up singing
Then you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky

But till that morning
There's a'nothing can harm you
With daddy and mamma standing by

Pamela Chng - Summertime by George Gershwin

In a world of appearances, music is the only thing-in-itself. It is an expression of my metaphysical being, and though it cannot be understood, it must surely be felt.

To all my friends on SoundCloud, and those I have yet to meet, thank you for connecting with me through your music. If you have music you want me to execute, I will be honoured to do so. It is a pleasure to know you.

About Me:
Had my first piano - a Yamaha C108 acoustic upright - and piano lessons when I was seven. Six years later, I was made to quit, so I left the piano and went on to mix records with a mobile disco I co-founded as a teenager. Became a school teacher, and now teaching classical piano privately. My focus is on music interpretation, tone production and technique. 

My other interests and areas of studies are philosophy, sociology, writing, cosmology, quantum mechanics, and reading. My greatest inspirations are J.S. Bach, Kant, Nietzsche, and Einstein (wow, I just realised they're all Germans).

Thank you for your comments and for listening.

My current recording setup comprises:
Acoustic piano - Yamaha C108 (pre-2010), Kawai NS-15 (2010-2014), Kawai K-25EA (2020-present)
External mic - Blue Yeti
Software - Logic Pro X / Garageband
