That's absolutely fantastic Paul! It's sublimely beautiful in fact!  I hope it gets performed soon!

Great to hear a new and very successful work from your move to Italy, Paul.  Very engaging music.  I really enjoyed the journey with its energy, excitement and beauty among many other facets.  The contrast between the 2nd and 3rd movements was excellent.

This brilliant piece is an original composition by Paul. Note the miraculous piano at 1:28 to 1:56, creating an entirely original effect not known to music before this original composition. Namely, use of the piano to conjure movements in nature. Difficult to express in words. Closest analogy is that the piano conjures the flickering gossamer movement of creatures found only in the deepest parts of oceans. Beautiful.

Fun with 5 Saxes, and a Blues-kind tune by Wes Montgomery... and a new toy.

Retorn Of Calafate Version Berlin School - Part 5

This is actually the first track I recorded by myself since early 4-track recordings decades ago. Recorded at the start of lockdown on an iPad before I discovered Ableton; cleaned up in 2023 for a new airing. Always saw it as a sonic future-scape that is a little rough around the edges but worth sharing again.

Concerto per Pianoforte e Orchestra da Camera
   I - calmo, simpatico e sereno
   II - veloce, giocoso e furioso / serioso e sfacciata / veloce, giocoso e furioso / energico e bruto
   III - sereno e quasi nebbia

Note:
This concerto is the first significant work composed having moved to Italy.  There is a new found peace in this work, even if the second movement is intentionally exciting.  However, the music's harmonies are more open and purposefully beautiful.  The work, cast in three movements, has no programmatic intent, but there is a clear musical journey, based on a mix of dialogue between soloist and orchestra, where ideas bounce back and forth, and where independence of spirit is always evident, even if the two characters (so to speak) are good companions.  The work is dedicated to my wife, Giuliana.

Concerto per Pianoforte e Orchestra da Camera

Before the last dance

there's is a lot that is wrong and a lot to be done. It won't happen if we don't do it. learn from the past.don't repeat mistakes.the world is the same anywhere you go. Differences among people are exaggerated insignificant quirks twisted by those who want to remain in power. we are all more alike than different


lyric

in the time that's left to me ,let me touch what's left to feel
in the time that's left to me, through the dim light let me see
I never needed to travel the globe cause the world always came to me

cause the sun,the moon, the rain the snow are constant everywhere
people laugh, people cry,people hope and people fear
nothing's different from here to there
it's all the same,nothing to fear

when will we learn that we have the power to turn dark into light
to feed the hungry and cloth the cold
with no damage to our body or danger to our soul

our lives are short but our legacy is long
the past must be our guide through the night to the dawn
so we can touch what must be touched
so we can see what must be seen
and not stay locked alone in ourselves for our tiny eternity

make a difference

Paul Max Edlin, 2016/2017 Composer in Residence for the London Chamber Orchestra, has a career that combines composing with higher education, artistic direction and performing.  

His works have been performed by many leading artists including Alison Balsom, Arditti Quartet, Britten Sinfonia, David Campbell, Cantus Ansambl, Dame Sarah Connolly, Dame Evelyn Glennie, Rolf Hind, Johannes Möller, London Chamber Orchestra, London Sinfonietta, Olga Pasiecznik, Psappha, Silesian Quartet, Southbank Sinfonia and Gabriella Swallow.

He studied with Edwin Roxburgh, Richard Blackford and Joseph Horowitz (Royal College of Music) and Michael Finnissy (University of Sussex). He has won many prizes including Premio Internazionale Ancona, Harriet Cohen Memorial Award and United Music Publishers Prize. His music explores symbolism and often derives its inspiration from extra musical material. From the mid 80’s to mid 90’s many works were inspired by the art and architecture of South-East Asia, especially Indochina. From 2000 onward symbolism of a wider range of sources guided his music, from the chiastic structures of J.S. Bach to the writings of Gabriel García Márquez and Federico García Lorca and visual work of Frida Kahlo.

He is former Director of Music at Queen Mary University of London. He was Artistic Director of Deal Music & Arts (formerly Deal Festival) from 2004 to 2021, Sounds New (2007 to 2013), Director of International Composer Pyramid (2008-2023) and was Chair of the Board of of Trustees of Ora Singers. He is current Chair of China U.K. International Music Festival. He supports a range of charities and arts organisations through activities on their various boards and committees.  From 2012 to 2013 he was President of the Incorporated Society of Musicians (ISM), the UK's leading association for professional musicians.
