📝 Description
"Lingering Light in Winter’s Embrace" is a chamber composition for eight instruments, deeply rooted in the expressive tradition of the Russian musical school, profoundly inspired by the legacies of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and Georgy Sviridov. The piece seeks to capture the ephemeral beauty of memory, weaving an atmosphere of tender melancholy and quiet contemplation, as if illuminated by the delicate glow of a winter landscape.

At its heart lies the theme of nostalgia — a longing for moments lost, expressed through a lyrical dialogue between the strings (first and second violins, viola, cello, and double bass) and the poignant timbre of the winds (flute, oboe, and clarinet). The strings evoke heartfelt emotions, whispering tales of cherished recollections, while the winds add a breath of airy lightness and a subtle shimmer of hope. The double bass provides a resonant foundation, grounding the composition in the timeless embrace of the natural world.

This work transcends a specific narrative, instead inviting listeners on an emotional journey — a meditation on the fleeting nature of time, the enduring power of the human spirit, and the universal search for harmony. "Lingering Light in Winter’s Embrace" is a sonic painting, a tapestry of sound designed to stir the soul and awaken the imagination. It’s a testament to the beauty found within stillness, and a celebration of the delicate balance between joy and sorrow.

A veil of melancholic reflection and memory drapes itself over every sense. Gentle string music, in the spirit of Nordic Romanticism, descends like mist upon the snow-covered landscape.

Musical notes: This is a variation on John Barry's theme for the 1971 TV show The Persuaders!. It is a challenge that my colleague and great composer Serge Smulders gave me. I could not resist as that TV show was one of my favourite those years. However, may I say that John Barry synthesized version of that time is now a bit outdated. Nevertheless, a classic is a classic hence revisiting it.

"New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings." - Lao Tzu

"It's strange, but true, that the most important turning points of life often come at the most unexpected times and in the most unexpected ways." - Napoleon Hill

A weekend improvisation, dedicated to the turning points in our lives that often show up unexpectedly, after heavy, difficult times.  As you listen to this piece, you will hear the "turning point" emerge in the music around the 3:22 mark.

A companion piece to "Starting Again."

The Turning Point

A spooky piece composed, performed and recorded by Karen Biehl.

Glorious is a gentle yet powerful meditation on hope, light, and renewal. Built on soft piano chords and spacious harmonies, the piece slowly unfolds like the first rays of morning—calm, sacred, and full of breath.

Glorious invites the listener into a world where time slows down, and presence takes center stage. It speaks of quiet strength—the kind that doesn’t shout, but resonates.

The Lola Express Pilot - Short Movie main theme. Now on Fetchflix

Brandon is the Chief Pilot of the Lola Express, a Golfstream 400 business aircraft. The perfect aircraft for cheating golfers. Brandon flies and glides to small islands smoothly and he ensures that the passengers has all the privacy for long and sparkling hours in the cabin. He is reliable and ensures that during the take-off and the landing a full glass of brandy would not spill off the folding table. However, Brandon is curious about what is happening in the cabin. Could it be that the passengers are playing Scrabble? Let’s have some doubts.

P.S. I know it is Gulfstream, not Golfstream but I could not resist to the temptation.
