Thoroughly English in arrangement but drenched in Oriental magic. A lovely work.

A conversation in melody. Gorgeous call and answer.

good conversation between the two instruments!

The original version by Hans Zimmer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOYcbod5J0w
Finally after a lot of hard work my version of Hans Zimmers track 'Lost But Won' is out now on Soundcloud.  
If you havn't seen the movie 'RUSH' yet please see it now its directed by Ron Howard and the sound track is just amasing. The film tells the heart warming story of the 1976 Formula One session and the intense rivalry between English driver James Hunt and Austrian Niki Lauda, Who half way through the session experienced a life threatening accident at the Nurburgring, but returned back in the drivers seat only 6 weeks later in time for the Italian Grand Prix. Although he lost the title by just one point to James Hunt that year he won his second title the year later.. 

This track was recorded using Native Instruments Maschine Studio with the new CREMONA QUARTET plugin

The winds of the East pass through, child memories brew. Memories related to the time my grandfather spent teaching me Chinese poetry, art, and calligraphy.

For Those Whom I've Met

FULL EXCLUSIVE ICE DANCING CHOREO VIDEO:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smPtP7f4nBY

Cold is a song about transformation and rebirth. The awakening of your soul, coming out of a frozen slumber, walking into the warm light of a better life. Our Cold, lonely and dark nights, eventually change with the tides, and comes with the reminder that we're never alone, and the Creator, angels, and spirits around us, are always waiting with an open hand to help us cross over to a life with more love and comfort. 
We hope our song Cold, brings a sense of hope and peace to the world.

COLD

Cinderella’s song about dreams and beautiful wishes is perfect for  the Christmas/Holiday season. I tried to keep the delicacy and innocence of the song. This is the original version with a twist on the theme. The longer version is when I added the theme and variations (https://soundcloud.com/contemplativeclassical/a-dream-is-a-wish-your-heart-makes-long-version)

Classic, vintage Disney music brings beautiful childhood memories back..It was very difficult to record with acoustic piano and I hope I brought this familiar song some justice!

Coming Home

Inside A String Orchestra

This tune is about 'What We've Said' ... to ourselves and others whilst to-ing and fro-ing in this ol' world. I hope you pick up on the underlying self-deprecating humor in the music. ;)

This also includes what we've expressed non-verbally in the moment, to ourselves and 'others', whether via thought, feeling, or through those invisible cords of connection shared with friends and loved ones around the globe.

That said... here's my latest 'Sound Seed', an upbeat bluesy Piano Improv that came through while jamming with a few friends recently.  

So put on yer Tap shoes... and inJOY!   :)

Twilight (Acoustic) feat. Fabian Boreck (Cello)

Shirley Ly is a self-taught contemporary classical music composer from Greenwich in London, United Kingdom, with Chinese and Vietnamese heritage. She began composing music when she was 15 and instantly fell in love with it, writing pieces whenever she feels inspired to do so for acoustic instruments. Her music has been played around half a million times across more than 100 countries around the world spanning six continents and is described to be a bridge between classical, romantic, and minimalist music with Eastern and jazz elements. She has performed her music across a variety of venues, including churches in London, and the Palace of Westminster, and will be performing in many more venues going forward.
​
She has produced two albums, Blossom (2021) and Impetus (2018), which feature 21 pieces composed for solo piano, duets, trios, and quartets. The pieces in the albums aim to capture her reflections on life experiences relating to nature (i.e., swallows' journeys to their nests, the seasons), living in London, dance, relationships with family and other loved ones, travel (i.e. to Berlin and Amsterdam), and dreams. Shirley plays the piano in all of her pieces.
   
She is currently working on her third and fourth albums, 9 Pieces About Cats and Paradise, to be released in 2023, where some of the pieces will be orchestral pieces. 9 Pieces About Cats consist of pieces inspired by her five mischievous cats in London. Paradise focuses on the beauty of the ocean and its diverse marine life. Through her experiences of swimming, diving, sailing, and surfing in the ocean, she has developed an intense admiration for the ocean. It is magnificent, refreshing, and incredibly humbling, and she hopes that her music can further emphasise its importance.  

​For Shirley, composing music helps with the discovery of self as it allows reflections to be expressed freely. She considers music to be very powerful as it can be shared, not only in a physical way where people can listen to it but in the sense that it evokes emotions, triggers memories, and makes the mind wander into an abyss of imagination. ​She sincerely hopes that her work shares in this sense with you.
