My second secular psalm, with choir and almost 20 soloinstruments (synthetic) in the orchestra. The choir consists of Elin Carina André, Eddi Wideberg, Maria Hedman. The lyrics sung in the finale are:

Skog och dal
i ljusgrön dräkt
i vårens bal
som livet väckt

Sippor små
i stora hav
vita, blå
som jorden gav

Fågelsång
och fjärilsdans
Ljuset som
ger livet en chans

Du min vän
jag håller kär
Kyss och känn
att våren är här!

written by Elin Carina.

This is originally my "exercise twenty-something in counterpoint" :) The melodies and polyphonies being the point and the minimalistic harmonies the solid foundation.  Most of the piece moves between C Am F C, with a Dm thrown in at some places, a necessity for the specific melodic variations and transformations that I intended.

The final mixing was executed by Carina. Thanks for listening!
PER

Vårens bal (Dance of Spring)

This is electronica with a a few symphonic influense. Kjelle (Steamman) does an incredible Knopfleresque contribution  playing the refrain, speciellaly at the end. And Maria speaks suggestive, evocative (with her sexy voice) during the correspondence with the synthetic voice.
I'd only wish I woud be able to take the time to mix the 6 minutes tune throughouly and put reverb (not the same on everything) on the diferent midi/audi tracks. I WILL!!! PROMISE!! No ordinay person notices it, but erudite assholes do! (But I like them anyway.)

I'll be happy if any listen likes it, by listening to it is  as it is (for the time being), the flaws are so subtle, you migt feel indulgence regarding it and might enjoy it
Kjelle is better than Knopfler! Definitely,

Morgonrodnad - Färdigmixad Av Leif - V10

Oriental musical influences and a melancholic text (by me). From spring 2008, when I just came home from China.

Lyrics:

I seek comfort in my sleep
emotions slowly slipping away
under raging waves deep
knee-deep in my wake


Await the joyous return
of my soul swept in robe of decay
garment of ice, her smiles burn
the dice turn, my eyes day


refr:
I search for the bright angels face
Who once could hear but now she's deaf
The search through an endless dark maze
Await the sun, arise or fading death.
