Very nice...piano music with lots of energy and magical feeling. I really can imagine your sound and thoughts when walking in an enchanted forest. 🎶🎁

a great energy in particular invthe accompaniment. And I like these only sparse harmonic changes that give the tune a kind of medieval flair! Very nice, Frances!

this is beautiful, really enjoyable 😊👌

very uplifting and a pleasure to hear. ive always been very much drawn to fairy tales . ive never grown up to be honest. this appeals to me

Very vivid and lively. I can see the fairies swirling around.

There is a hint of the Gaelic in your flowing phrases. I am ushered, if briefly, to a distant land.

Enchanted Forest Dance

She is an icon of folk music, she played her guitar upside down and backwards, and she served Don a fried chicken dinner when he got an opportunity to meet her in her home in Alexandria, Va.  In return he tried to teach her the Gary Davis tune "Candyman".  Don's roots run deep in folk music, not in just his knowledge of the genre, not just in the vintage instruments he owns and plays with deft skill, but in having encountered the artists themselves in live and personal settings.  His Cloud is full of his wonderful melodies and fine performances @https://soundcloud.com/user-399104119
We continue our "front porch jam" by covering "Libba" Cotten's cherished tune; I play the main melody on an Ibenez OM guitar, Don joins in with his Washburn parlor, Gibson mandolin, and a dulcimer tuned to C--a string band to be sure;)
Thanks also to Debra Buesking for her personal request that I attempt a cover of the song that got the ball rolling.

To Die a Hero by Oussama Arichi & Nadia Selvaggi

This song may seem like a step backwards, no DAW, just acoustic, quite simple, vocals and a guitalele as accompaniment. Are you familiar with this instrument? I didn't know it existed until I met someone on the train who had one with him, the GL1 from Yamaha. It's kind of a full-fledged mini guitar. It's rather inexpensive considering the quality, costing less than 100 euros including the case. It's a beautiful instrument, and you can easily take it with you anywhere. You can play it like a normal guitar, you just have to get used to the small frets on the fretboard. But I don't wish to advertise here...anyway, I am really happy with it.
I found that song on my phone, one of my very first songs, like „Giants“. I wasn't very good at playing at the time, so the accompaniment consisted mainly of 1 or 2 notes on the electric guitar, hardly any chords. When I rediscovered it, I thought it sounded so embarrassing (the guitar playing) that I wanted to delete it. But then I listened to the complete song and finally liked it a lot. I've taken over some of the minimal guitar playing here in the guitalele version, but play also full chords. So please don't expect a complex song here. Maybe if this is the first song you will hear from me, you perhaps better skip it and listen to another one first.

Get out of my Head

Now im home again 
and i just want to say how much i missed you.
Evening haunts the room 
and all i want to be is where im at.
i know you know i know
somethings hidden underneath our purpose
Earth is dying a slow death
so whatever mind you made up is mine
whatever story you told is lost
whatever harm you caused has healed
In the great divide

Im just sad to see we didnt get the chance to live forever
whatever its dying a slow death.

This isint yours to take
This isint yours to evade
This isint yours to see --

divide hours

I Hope You Know 
Music & Lyrics by Francess Harris

Another night gazing at the stars, while you are on my mind;
So close to me and yet so far away.
And like the stars, memories shine bright and joy is what I find;
I smile and say a prayer for your next day.
So, when you see the stars, remember my love follows where you go.
I hope you know.

You’re a treasure, I cherish you; don’t let that slip your mind.
You have a dream, a purpose to fulfill.
The world needs the gifts you have, your heart is always kind;
So, make a difference, I am sure you will.
And when you see the stars, remember my love follows where you go.
I hope you know.

Bridge:
There are times that the storms will come; don't let them get you down.
Just keep moving on to higher ground.
Life is hard, but beautiful, and you will make it through.
Chase your dreams and know, I believe in you.
So, when you see the stars, remember my love follows where you go.
I hope you know. I hope you know.

Ending:
Another night gazing at the stars while you are on my mind;
I smile and say a prayer for your next day.

I Hope You Know

Lyrics:

A little bird told me you had left this town
And no one knew where you had gone
So many rumors everywhere
They all talked about you, when you weren't there

But little birds can sometimes be fake
You were there, hiding, had made some mistakes
You couldn't show yourself, had so much fear
The little birds made a rumor, that you had disappeared

Sharp tongues on the little birds
They spoke very loudly, made sure they were heard
"What have you done?"
"Why did you leave?"
While you were hiding, the little birds screamed

Little birds can sometimes be fake
You were there, hiding, had made some mistakes
You couldn't show yourself, had so much fear
The little birds made a rumor, that you had disappeared

Fake little birds.....

Fake little birds....

Fake Little Birds

skyscraper (lovely piano)

Right now, vague anxieties in the world strike us like noise.
What is its root cause? Sadness? Anger? Or fear? No, that's not it.
Its true nature is the fear called "loneliness" that suddenly comes to anyone.
Even if filled with love, friendship, or family, loneliness somehow crosses the mind.
In this world, I am the only one. The only one who knows me is myself. The feeling of loneliness is very painful.
However, we face that loneliness sincerely.
That is precisely what allows us to truly notice others' loneliness, empathize with others' sadness, and become advocates who grasp others' feelings.
When we feel loneliness and based on that are able to erase the world's noise, we perceive everything as conscious.
But the world is so impermanent, and someday the end of life will come to you and me too.
What we leave behind then is not a big deal.
What exists there is a world of "nothingness." Yes, everything returns to nothing. The world and we all return to nothing. But the "nothingness" embraces the world—gently, strongly, bravely, and cheerfully, peacefully, and calmly..."

Welcome to my SoundCloud page.  It serves as a jar of sorts, to catch the musical ideas flying around in my head!  My hope is that you find something to listen to that offers encouragement and refreshes your soul.

All music is original with a few exceptions (such as new arrangements of old Christmas songs, etc.).  All music has been composed and performed with absolutely no AI-assistance.  I primarily perform and record on the Yamaha MODX8, with an occasional recording on my older Yamaha Clavinova.  You will also find collaborative works on my page, featuring some other amazing musicians on SoundCloud.

It is a joy to share my music with you, and I hope you enjoy listening!
