I wrote this for a friend, a neighbor, who is very sick and there is no escaping from her reality. She deals with her life on a day to day basis.  She can hearymmmm
 me when I'm at the piano (when I don't use headphones. ) Listening to me do warm up exercises or playing something over and over can be pretty boring. I'm finding now, being a senior babyboomer, it is beginning to take longer to loosen and co-ordinate my hands than it used to. That's life, I guess.

Whenever I create music there has to be a reason or emotionally it just doesn't come together. Creating  longer than improvising, because I memorize it so I can be played again. It took a while to finish this piece because playing it without making a mistake anywhere is difficult. I still hear mistakes. I will later DL just the piano score.  For me, there is nothing more satisfying than creating music.

There Is No Escape From Myself

Was going after a Pink Floyd sound on this. I hope you enjoy it!

In a dream, you’ll make it
Has to be, to take it
Guilty, we can see our saviour
The bastard, he can be our traitor

The wind and sea will impale ya
If you’re like me; a drunken sailor
To never be free, I found a jailer
A sot, a near-do-well, a total failure

There has to be something braver
For saving me, blind faith, and valor
The troubled breeze of change surrounds us
A muddled release of all they’re talking about

In a dream, you’ll break it
The mirror of fate, yourself; you hated
Bring to me the sands of Abydos
For the beggar who has the most

I’ll squint to see if there’s land there yet
Uncertainty is the jailer now
Brought to peace, my fight is over now
Into that dream, forever; on and on

Quiet Desperation

This one was written and arranged in under 24 hours. I am at my happiest when i hit a flow state, but also burned my brain with excess screentime.
It's about the inevitable journey of loss and grief, and then acceptance, peace and the return of the life urge.

Ils trouvaient que le monde n'était pas assez fou comme ça : alors pour faire bon poids ils ont choisi... Trump!!! Ben moi, quant les Musk et les réseaux sont au pouvoir, face à la déconne générale, je dis  : "déconnexion"! (manière pacifique et un tantinet désespérée, j'en conviens, de faire "sécession")

Lyrics

You are my muse
You are my light
You are human
The brightest of bright
You seed the answers
In your face the deepest questions
Ones of stolen existence
Now restricted in bitumen

You are my muse
You are my light
You are human
The brightest of bright
You seed the answers
In your face the deepest questions
Ones of stolen existence
Unrestrict that in me now

With the concrete set we find our chisels
We are that steal reinforcement hidden
The grey matter erodes
The inner bloom balloons
The nutrients new,
Knew what our neutrinos can do.

You are my muse
You are my light
You are human
The brightest of bright
You seed the answers
In your face the deepest questions
Ones of stolen existence
Unrestrict that from me now
So I'll leave this be alone...

No one asked you to fill holes,
Oh, please excuse my silly soul.
Who am I to know when my heart says, so...
Who is there to show when the soul says, go...

My music pieces are all piano improvisations expressing emotions. It is music telling stories without the words. In my earIy years I sang and played piano in piano bars or fronted bands of different styles, from country to heavy metal and to 40. I've been composing, teaching and performing most of my life.  I'm getting old(er) now 😔 but the great thing about creating music is it gets better the longer you play, and you have more to write about! 

This is what I leave of me to my generations to come who wonder where their desire to make music comes from. My mother, grandmother and great grandmother were both accomplished pianists when they were young. My son is also exceptional.  My great grandmother and gr grandfather sang and danced in minstrel shows (vaudeville) in the early 1900's. Kids today have no idea what life was like before moving pictures.  I now have great-grandchildren. They will know who I am through my music. When I am gone my music will still be here. What a wonderful thought!
