Love the songwriting, really great vocals.

Great performance, your voice fits the song perfectly!

Like this one early guitar really drags you in. Vocals are really good, again kind of a sad or searching theme?? Great track!!

PROGRAM NOTE
Unlike some of my previous works, Suite for String Orchestra is not inspired by an over-arching programmatic theme. Although there are some technical and motivic relationships between some of the movements—particularly the first and fifth—the movements are generally unrelated and are meant to be noticeably distinct. It is in five short movements and is intentionally written in an “old-fashioned,” somewhat archaic style. I initially played around with the idea of titling this work Old-fashioned Suite or Old Time Suite, but there seems to be a sufficient sprinkling of “new fangled ideas” in this work to make these alternative titles seem inadequate.

The first movement, Allegro vivace, is written in a “mid-20th century American” style. My model for a few of the sections in this movement is the evocative, German phrase Sturm und Drang, which literally translated means “storm and stress.”

In the second movement, Trapped waltz, I imagine an ethereal, yet cognizant waltz floating above the stratosphere, looking for a place to rest, but hobbled and shackled by a pounding rock and roll drumset. I see this as a metaphor for the various dances throughout history that have come and gone but are continually vying for attention in contemporary culture. The movement fades out at the end, as if the waltz is eternally looking for a place to settle down. Admittedly, I was somewhat inspired by the collage works of Charles Ives.

The third movement, Nocturne, begins slowly and sadly, and I imagine the pulse in the beginning as similar to the gentle breathing of someone who is asleep. The middle of the movement is much more intense and violent, and the end is as soft and calm as the beginning. The first chair violin and the first chair violoncello have brief solos in this movement.

Although material from the middle of the fourth movement, Balinese scherzo, is derived from a Balinese scale, the beginning is somewhat chromatic and the ending is essentially based on the E-major scale. This movement is distinctive in that the orchestra is asked to play pizzicato almost the entire time.

The fifth movement, Finale: allegro moderato, is the movement that is most reminiscent of the first movement. The ending combines material from the beginning of both the first and fifth movements.

LET'S GO!

If You Ever Go

“Let Me Breathe” is a collaboration between Edward Auslender & Dika Chartoff. The song was inspired by the TV series “Stranger Things” for the Society of Composers and Lyricist (SCL) First SongDemic event.

Don't let anything  hold you back....

Don't need another reason, to run way from you
Don't need another excuse to feel the way I do
I don't need anybody holding me back
Just feels like I'm running all the time and I'm always watching my back

OOO, I'm really feeling it now
Watch me fly. The world just keeps spinning in time
Yet I feel, so alive

Why wait until the morning, when reasons calling to you
It seems pretty obvious, when you feel the way I do
I don't need the evening holding me back
just gotta stop holding on
Its just the strength that I lack

Oooo, I'm really feeling it now
watch me fly. The world keeps spinning in time
Yet I feel so alive

You know why, I work so hard, I keep on trying
I Just want to be a better man
I Try so hard, do the best I can
Oh am I a better man, feel like I'm a better man
just living any way I can, feel like im a better man

Ooo, I'm really feeling it now
Watch me fly. the world keeps spinning in time 
Yet I feel so alive

Don't need another reason

Dont Need Another Reason

When someone you love passes away, he or she will always be present in your dreams telling you to fly away

LET´S FLY HOME TOGETHER

I´ll feel you in the wind
I´ll find you in the sea
I´ll touch in the sun
I´ll see you anywhere
you´re in my dreams
You´re in my sight
Come into my nights
And into my days
Let´s fly home together yes!
We´ll crave love forever yes!

No matter if we´re gone
We´ll play our game again
Today will be tomorrow
And tomorrow yesterday
Tonight we´ll see the sun
As we sleep on the moon
Tomorrow we´ll be gone
And we play our game again
Let´s fly home together yes!
We´ll crave love forever yes!

I´ll feel you in the wind
I´ll find you in the sea
I´ll touch in the sun
I´ll see you everywhere
No matter if you´re gone
We´ll play our game again
Today will be tomorrow
And tomorrow yesterday
Let´s fly home together yes!
We´ll crave love forever yes!

LETS FLY HOME TOGETHER (Alfonso Llorente)

Don't Know Why I Say...

I run at speed down dead-end streets
Still in search of something different
I trip myself as if I'm someone else
All just for something to do

I'm not alone in that I find a way to make the day pass away
I'm not alone in that I find a way to make the pain pass away

A victim of insecurity 
You never knew your value 
Unless someone told you
And even then, and even then
Everyones full of it
They're full of it

You're not alone in that you find a way to make the day pass away
You're not alone in that you find a way to make the pain pass away
