A piece for POSKOD.SG

as I transcribe, I listen...

an acoustic piece created entirely on the piano, in a single space.
the interaction of 3/4, 4/4 and 5/4; canon and piano percussion
at home

invisible snow

fly me away, where I will find rest
the end of my invisible journey
the beginning of yet another chapter
I seek a new bed
and I will lay me down to sleep

[acoustic piano + xylophones + violin bow + processing]


pollen

the gentle morning dew
rests and collects in humility
being, temporal arrest
till it over runs, pulled by gravity
glinting descent... my leaves bidding longing goodbyes

[xylophones + violin bow + guitar + electronic-bow]


morning dew

tardily waking up to the distant glow
awaken day, the smell of fresh green
hidden gesticulations, curious motility
this rays of light, my provender

[tin toys + piano + xylophones + noise + processing]


photosynthesis

rocking in the cradle of the winds
the sun smiling warmly with closed eyes
cascading kaleidoscopic shadows
painting fleeting images in evanesce
small conversations amongst the leaves
swaying... the time stands still


[acoustic piano + music box + xylophones + bells]

wind in the leaves

night befalls and flower beds come alive
sleepy trees, watchmen of the nocturnal
the roots hear the night while the flower sleeps
the song of forty winks

[acoustic piano + melodica + xylophones + toys + field recording + object sampling]

when a flower sleeps

blossoming companions stemmed in unison
forgathered by birth, an emblazoned ensemble
wreathing in the quieten wind... placidity
lightsome buoyant dance of colours

[acoustic piano + bells + toys + looper + field recording + feedback + processing]




inflorescence

sprouting... burgeon forth the beginning
pullulating the once lonesome land
a simple gesture of germination
speaks kinder tacit words
young nights wilt the lingering mind
a wise one drawn out by rain sends the best company...

[toy guitar + electric guitar + music box + xylophone + melodica + toys + bells + vocals + looper + processing]

seedlings

the wait is over
cometh the colours of bearing
a gesture of quiet blooming
this untainted singing of a flowering plant
simple, as is

[acoustic piano + xylophone + music box + violin bow]
