my compliments to all three of you, a most beautiful work Shirley....

very cinematic - great playing by all instrumentalists. :)

Beautiful piece! It gives me the impression that your compositions usually start from a cello or violin motif and then develop (or not) on the piano in the silence of strings, not just accompanying, but developping counter lines or new melodic lines.

brilliant depiction of a grey, gloomy London

Love this Shirley....lovely piano 💜💜💜

I love the performances from everyone. Its a wonderfully contemplative piece, quite exceptional.

Memories

'Is The Red Dust On Steroids' is from my upcoming album 'A Word In Your Ear Please' and is a jazz Fusion track, inspired by the global chaos being created presently by the so called 'Deep State'. However the planet is in a continual state of chaos known by the Daoists as 'Red Dust' The track is quite extreme in nature and begins and ends very calmly, while the centre sections are the complete opposite.

Awakening

"The alternative to democracy is a nightmare ... All tyranny is based on a lie. The greater the tyranny, the greater the lie."
"Disagree with the tyrant and you risk imprisonment, torture and death. Yet that's what we must do, all of us. We must protect our right to tell the truth."
"The war in Ukraine is nonsense, based on a lie. If we swallow that lie, the lie will eat us. The lie is terrified of the truth."

"L'alternativa alla democrazia è un incubo... Tutta la tirannia si basa su una menzogna. Maggiore è la tirannia, maggiore è la menzogna".
"Non essere d'accordo con il tiranno e rischi la prigione, la tortura e la morte. Eppure è quello che dobbiamo fare, tutti noi. Dobbiamo proteggere il nostro diritto a dire la verità".
"La guerra in Ucraina è una sciocchezza, basata su una bugia. Se inghiottiamo quella bugia, la bugia ci mangerà. La bugia è terrorizzata dalla verità".
"Non dobbiamo perdere questa battaglia".

Se continui a fingere che non stia succedendo nulla, l'umanità affronterà tempi difficili.

If you keep pretending that nothing is happening, humanity will face difficult times.

The pieces in her albums aim to capture her reflections on life experiences relating to nature (i.e., swallows' journeys to their nests, the seasons, swans), living in London, dance, relationships with family and other loved ones, travel (i.e. to Berlin, Amsterdam), and dreams. Paradise (2023) is inspired by her experiences of swimming, diving, sailing, and surfing in the ocean, and she hopes that her music can further emphasise its importance. 
 
9 Lives (2023) is inspired by the beauty, charm and mysteriousness of cats. She lives in London with her five cats, and gain a lot of inspiration from them. This album aims to raise money for animal charities in areas which need support the most.
