“Atlantic to Adriatic” is an album built on connection — across distance, time, and sound. A collaboration spanning oceans, the record transforms each track into a shared space where field recordings, classical instrumentation, and synthesizers intertwine to evoke memory, place, and movement. Every piece emerges from the intersection of our two worlds — Venice and Boston — bridging geography and time to create something timeless.

A Shallow Breath (First Draft)

Intermezzo (Extended)

Intermezzo

https://on.soundcloud.com/bIDFUGYEDcLZr2btI1 by VickStiX @vicky-adair

This song is my future self at ninety, speaking back to my present self. It’s raw, intimate, and soft-spoken — like a truth only time can reveal. Where "Don’t Be Me" (on.soundcloud.com/HDgZa4Mt4Sy1GVqfg) was my plea to the five-year-old me to hold on to her fire, "Voice at Ninety" is the continuation — the perspective of a woman who has lived it all, looking back with clarity and love. It’s about recognizing that even as the body ages, the spirit doesn’t fade, and the fire inside still burns. It’s a reminder not to save your song for another day, not to fold or disappear, but to live fully and love fiercely for as long as body and mind allow. This isn’t just advice to myself — it’s a message for anyone who has ever wondered what really matters when the years catch up: love, truth, and the courage to keep your voice alive. @vicky-adair

LYRICS:

[Verse 1]
Hey stubborn woman, hands still scarred,
You’ve carried battles, you’ve walked through dark.
But don’t let silence steal your fire,
Don’t bury truth beneath desire.

[Pre-Chorus]
The mirror may crack, but your spirit won’t break,
Every scar on your skin is the proof you create.

[Chorus]
So live loud, live true,
Make the world make room for you.
Don’t save your song for another day,
Sing it now before it slips away.
I’ve seen the end, and I swear it’s clear —
What matters most is love while you’re here.

[Verse 2]
You held your tongue when you should’ve screamed,
You gave your time to the wrong damn dream.
Don’t let regret chain up your feet,
Forgive yourself and claim your seat.

[Pre-Chorus]
The body gets weak, but the fire won’t die,
I’m proof you can roar when the night runs dry.

[Chorus]
So live loud, live true,
Make the world make room for you.
Don’t save your song for another day,
Sing it now before it slips away.
I’ve seen the end, and I swear it’s clear —
What matters most is love while you’re here.

[Verse 3]
At ninety I smile at the woman you are,
Bruised but burning, you’ve come so far.
Don’t chase the ghosts, don’t fear the fall,
You’ll find your wings when you give it all.

[Bridge]
Write your rage on the sky, let your stories bleed,
Every loss was a fire, every wound a seed.
And I wouldn’t trade the pain I’ve known,
It carved the voice that’s all your own.

[Chorus]
So live loud, live true,
Make the world make room for you.
Don’t save your song for another day,
Sing it now before it slips away.
I’ve seen the end, and I swear it’s clear —
What matters most is love while you’re here.

[Chorus (Refrain)]
Live wild, live free,
Keep your heart where it’s meant to be.
Don’t fold, don’t fade, don’t disappear,
Carry your fire across the years.

[Outro]
So if you hear me from the future call,
Don’t be afraid — you can’t lose it all.
Love’s the only thing that you keep,
I’ll hold it safe for when you sleep.

PROGRAM NOTE
For many years, my wife Victoria and her FAB5 quintet (string quartet and percussion), have entertained thousands of people at numerous performance spaces and travel hubs in New York City, including Moynihan Train Hall, Oculus World Trade Center, Javits Center, and Chelsea Market. Having seen many of their shows, especially those at travel hubs, there's a certain tension and release you experience watching people wait anxiously for their trains, and then the release they feel when they are finally on their way. I've had these experiences myself, so I wanted to create two pieces that emulate these feelings.

Wound Up/Unwind consists of two contrasting pieces for string quartet and percussion. The first, Wound Up, for string quartet and cajón, imitates the feeling of being worried, anxious, and frustrated, especially while waiting to board a train. The second, Unwind, for string quartet and handpan, is calm and soothing, perhaps emulating the satisfying feeling of relaxing in a quiet seat as the train leaves the station. Both pieces can be performed independently and in any order.

Wound Up/Unwind is written for and commissioned by the FAB5 quintet with support from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.
