Dystopian Everyday

An acoustic / orchestral version of this song from our 3rd album. Featuring John's daughter, Ada on the trumpet!

LYRICS:

They stayed at home
And you went to Rome
Ate on your own
Embraced the unknown

You counted leaves
While they stared at trees
Down on your knees
Escape their disease

It’s too far, it’s too high, it’s too hard to climb

Rome - acoustic version

Update Dez 17th.
First Demo-Version with Full lyrics are uploaded.

This is only an idea for a new song.
I have many lyric-ideas in my book but i don't want to give a name now.
This is my first attemp. It is definitly not easy to play. I have to practice many times more. But if someone gives a comment i would be happy. its unfinished and i will change many things before i post the final version

Update Dec, 9th: The song developed. The melody tolds a full story. And now half of the lyrics are finished and it sounds amazing. Can't wait until i post the first version with lyrics.

I Believe in Father Christmas [Greg Lake cover]

Inside a forest it sang

This piece is for a small ensemble of six instruments (flute, bass clarinet, violin, cello, piano, and percussion). It is inspired by a popular Catalan song that has precisely the same title, in Catalan "A dins d'un bosc cantava". The lyrics of the song explain that "Inside a forest a cuckoo sang with great eagerness, from the top of a towering oak, calling his companion ...".  Thus, the starting musical material has been the melody of this song. Material subjected to various transformations. The most notable is in the melodic field and has been to "chromatize" the initial diatonic melody by incorporating the necessary notes to achieve the basic melodic phrase formed by all the notes of the chromatic scale. This melodic phrase has been the effective base on which the entire work has been built. However, I have not wanted to completely dispense with the initial diatonic melody, but it also appears at different times, but with careful treatment, using the complementary musical elements to achieve a sufficiently coherent result that would overcome the possible contradiction caused by the simultaneous presence of diatonic materials and dodecaphonic materials.

Randomization is another important element that appears in composition. I have tried to present a continuous evolution of the presence of a controlled randomness, obtaining three different phases in the course of the work. The beginning has a more chaotic nature and evolves towards a much more orderly and clear-cut environment to end in the last part that takes up the more uncertain and agitated aspect of the beginning but that definitively overcomes the initial disorder.

With this approach, I wanted to achieve a music that would maintain the naive, innocent and playful character that the initial song has, but trying to make a musical rereading that was more modern and with a few more doses of complexity. All this imbued with a festive and Christmas atmosphere, which would serve to congratulate the Christmas holidays this year, which is the pragmatic reason why I wanted to compose this piece.

If you dance with the devil then you need to consider that the hell is loose. If a church organ can keep him calm is not guaranteed neither that you can calm him down with a smooth ending ... so up to you to decide, if you dare that dance or not ...

A Shark Never Comes Alone

Dance With The Devil

A piece of music is a mentally constructed entity, of which scores and performances are partial representations by which the piece is transmitted.
(Fred Lerdahl & Ray Jackendoff)

Any tone can succeed any other tone, any tone can sound simultaneously with any other tone or tones, and any group of tones can be followed by any other group of tones, just as any degree of tension  or nuance can occur in any medium under any kind of stress or duration. Successful projection will depend upon the contextual and formal conditions that prevail, and upon the skill and soul of the composer.
(Vincent Persichetti)

Music is a system of signs composed of complex forms which may be represented by physical sounds, and which in this way mediate between mental and psychic contents. To deal with such a system, semiotics are naturally evoked. To describe these forms, mathematics is the adequate language. To represent these forms on the physical level, physics are indispensable. And to understand the psychic contents, psychology is the predestined science.
(Guerino Mazzola)
