70_ Waiting in Berlin-Tegel at Night - released on 16 November 2024 only on Soundcloud

Late at night, I had missed my train home and was waiting for the next one. I was listening to music from the album "Colors" by Christopher von Deylen aka Schiller and was inspired. This is what came out of it! #minimal #nodrums #ambient  #liverecording

Waiting in Berlin-Tegel at Night

The wacky adventures of Inspector Looso - Traffic Agent Looso

Inspector Looso just had a so called lateral promotion. This is the politically correct way used by the Human Resources to bump someone out of his chair. In fact he was demoted down the food chain since he goofed so many times and missed finding the criminals he was supposedly chasing. Luc Looso is now Traffic Agent in Paris at the corner of Rue des Deux Boules and Rue Bertin Poirée where he should be of no harm for anybody but guess what. He fucked-up again. 

The End

“This story is a work of fiction. Any similarity to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events, is purely coincidental. The corner of Rue des Deux Boules and Rue Bertin Poirée do exist and you can see it on Google Street. Perfect spot for Looso.

Music by: Syrel

 
Musical Notes: You may recognize the inspiration from An American in Paris by George Gershwin, the Candide overture by Leonard Bernstein, a bit of The Pink Panther soundtrack by Henry Mancini as well as many other great composers when they writes funny music such as Tchaikovsky in the Nuts Crackers and Sergey Prokofiev  in Peter and the Wolf.

Rotten to the Core

"Faust", Charles Gounods opera, based on the tragic tale of the aging scholar Dr. Faust who made a deal with the devil to relive his youth, and in the process seduces, an finally ruins young innocent Marguerite's virtue and subsequently her life, premiered in 1859 at the Théâtre Lyrique in Paris.
The aria "Avant de quitter ces lieux" however was added in 1864, when the opera was first given in English, and Gounod wrote a new aria for baritone Charles Santley in the role of Valentin.

We hope you'll enjoy :)

Lyrics

VALENTIN
Avant de quitter ces lieux,
Sol natal de mes aïeux,
A toi, Seigneur et Roi des cieux,
Ma sœur je confie.
Daigne de tout danger
Toujours la protéger,
Cette soeur, si chérie.
Délivré d'une triste pensée
J'irai chercher la gloire au sein des ennemis,
Le premier, le plus brave au fort de la mêlée,
J'irai combattre pour mon pays.
Et si, vers lui, Dieu me rappelle,
Je veillerai sur toi fidèle,
Ô Marguerite.
Avant de quitter ces lieux, etc.
Ô Roi des cieux, lève les yeux,
Protège Marguerite, ô Roi des cieux!

English

VALENTINE
Before I quit these parts,
birthplace of my forefathers,
to Thy care, o Lord and Ruler of the skies,
I confide my sister.
Deign to protect her always
from every danger.
My sister, so dearly loved.
Freed from care and worry,
I will go to seek glory in the enemy's midst,
foremost and bravest in the thick of the fight,
I'll go to fight for my country.
And, if God should call me to Him,
I will watch faithfully over you,
o Marguerite!
Before I quit these parts, etc.
O King of heaven, look down
and protect Marguerite, o King of heaven!


Avant de quitter ces lieux (Faust - Charles Gounod - @rehearsals with Helen Roberts)
