your music really touched my heart! Amazing!!

Great track both of you. I agree the guitars add to the track beautifully

Theres a film maker out there somewhere waiting for this to come his/her way. Fantastic guitars. The nylon has a happy feel, the electric more moody and atmospheric. Different sounds, sturring different emotions. You have got the blending of your fabulous trad instruments and the guitars perfect. Excellent track people.

Love the arrangement Guitar work is excellent .

The true tale of Charles Byrne, the Irish Giant. (1761–1783)
Charles' "gentle, likeable nature inspired an immense public fondness, and his celebrity life was constantly splashed across the newspapers of the day. Byrne's great height was the result of a then-undiscovered growth disorder.
Byrne was living in London at the same time as the pre-eminent surgeon and anatomist John Hunter. Hunter had a reputation for collecting unusual specimens for his private museum, and Hunter had offered to pay Byrne for his corpse. As Byrne's health deteriorated, and knowing that Hunter wanted his body for dissection (a fate reserved at that time for executed criminals) and probable display, Byrne devised a plan. He made express arrangements with friends that when he died his body would be sealed in a lead coffin and taken to the coastal town of Margate and then to a ship for burial at sea. Byrne's wishes were thwarted and his worst fears realised when Hunter arranged for the cadaver to be snatched on its way to Margate."

I've been in awe of Debra Buesking's music for a while, so what a joy and pleasure its been to collaborate with her on this track.  Debra took my simple little composition and dressed it up in the finest of clothes with some beautiful playing.  I was half tempted to release just the piano track!

Aysgarth Falls (feat. Debra Buesking)

So thrilled to have been able to work with the wonderful Suzanne Ledwith @suzanne-ledwith on this song.  What a beautiful and captivating voice!!
I also have to thank Peter @user-264930040 for collaborating with me on the lyrics. He has a masterful way with words, and imbued the lyrics with poetry and life!

The Glimmering Shore

They married in haste on a bright winter’s day 
Knowing the next tide would sail him away 
But he pledged his return come the warmth of the May
 And to wait for him there on the glimmering shore

High masted whaler, fading from view 
Beyond her horizon of shimmering blue 
Steeling her heart, through tearful adieu 
Set to wait for her love by that glimmering shore

May’s softness as swallows came dancing on air 
July blessed her life with his daughter so fair 
Then autumn winds rising, whispering despair 
While she waits for her love on that glimmering shore

Darklings of winter, snow blankets the sand.
 Earth forged to ice, life stripped from the land. 
Daily returning, the horizon to scan 
To wait for her love on that glimmering shore

Weeks swelled to months that folded to years
 Hope’s light expiring, extinguished by fears 
And the salty sea roared and it crashed like her tears
As she waits for her love on that glimmering shore

Like a ship gripped by tempest ne’er to break free
 Her heart imprisoned on a turbulent sea. 
No lighthouse of guidance to lead her to lee. 
She'd wait for her love on that glimmering shore

*** My November Rainbow ***
Lyrics
In November,
rain and wind strike our skin,
In November,
the birds stop singing,
In November,
the sun forgets us,
In November,
the grayness invades us,
In November,
In November,

My Rainbow,
My rainbow suddenly rises,
My Rainbow,
My Rainbow,
My rainbow suddenly rises,

piercing the sky, lighting up my life,
piercing the sky, lighting up my life,

My Rainbow,
My rainbow suddenly rises,
My Rainbow,
My Rainbow,
My rainbow suddenly rises,

My November,
My November rainbow,
My November,
My November rainbow,
My November,
My November rainbow,

My November Rainbow

Quite possibly my darkest track to date, around the idea of an imaginary desolate landscape that has been destroyed over time. This is also probably my first track which has more of a film music feel to it. I have used mostly orchestral instruments with some experimental synths and extra sounds as always though!

I warmly thank Phil and Debra for this collaboration.
Like most people, I have heard this song many times, read the poem.
 But now I understand the depth of this poem, so sore and fragile. 
Thank you from heart Debra and Phil,  two wonderful musicians. A JOY.

If you need one poem for regrets in your life, then it must be this poem. 

Down by the Salley Gardens was written by W B Yeats (1889), who is generally known as one of Ireland’s greatest poets.

    Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
    She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
    She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
    But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.

    In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
    And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
    She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
    But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.

 Yeats published the poem in his collection, The Wanderings of Oisin and Other Poems in 1889. 
In a note on the poem, he said that he was trying to reconstruct an old song he had heard being sung by a woman in the village of Ballisodare in Sligo.

Down by the Salley Gardens was written as a poem and remained that way until 1909 when Herbert Hughes set it to music using the old Irish melody, The Maids of Mourne Shore.

Salley Gardens. Debra Buesking. Philleann. Oddrun Eikli.

This is my first collaboration with the very talented Patrick Zelinski @treblemaker who added some sweet guitar work to this track,  it really brought the track to a whole new level!

Hunters Tor (Philleann & Patrick Zelinski)

By my way of thinking, playing the piano is like reading a great book.  One can go anywhere or do anything with no danger to life or limb.  In this little piece I mosey along on horseback with the cool breeze in my hair.  (I've always wanted to be a "horse person" but I don't think it's going to happen now.) This is the next best thing -- and probably safer.

TAFFETA | 113

Leben geht weiter,
ob der Mensch will oder nicht,
Fluch oder Segen.

Akzeptanz im Sein
eröffnet neue Wege,
still und unbemerkt.

Veränderungen,
nachhaltig und ursprünglich,
geschehen ruhig.

Draussen tobt der Krieg,
eine Welt ohne Gefühl,
Überlebenstrieb.

Drinnen ist Einklang,
gelassen und friedliebend
mit sich und der Welt.

im Einklang
