Bogart...film noire...Bacall... Casablanca... definitely painting pictures

sweet and dream, virtuosité, fluidité, comme de l'eau qui coule !

Reminds me of when I was a young girl cross-country skiing in the middle of winter in Montana.💝

This is like a theme song to a movie....absolutely fabulous Syntaleta.

WAIT FOR THE REACTION OF THE BLACK KNIFE

Once I wrote a description here !!!

Ok let's say I started adding layers to the great music https://soundcloud.com/progrockdan1 sent to me.

Letra (translated lyrics below)

Se arrastró bajo los muros,
llorando.
Se filtró por las ranuras,
buscándome.
Y miró entre las fisuras,
deseando:
mucho claro, nada oscuro,
llamándome…
 
Mas el centinela mágico
de quijadas relucientes,
descarnado por los dientes
de mil y un gusanos cárnicos,
por la acción más degenérica
de venenos de odio y muerte,
este ser, cerebro inerte,
la detuvo, niña histérica…
 
Pero huyó,
vio sentada su promesa de llamarme.
Y escapó,
Vio prendido su deseo de amarme.
Sensación
de saber que era la presa, fuego y carne,
y en la intensa luz de vida vino a hallarme;
y me encontró.
-------------------------------------------
She crawled under the walls,
crying.
She filtered through the grooves,
searching for me.
And she looked inside the fissures,
wishing:
much clarity, no darkness,
calling me…

But the magic sentry
of shining jawbones,
eaten to the bone by the teeth
of thousand and one meat worms,
For the most degenerated action
of poisons of hatred and death,
this being, inert brain,
detained her, hysterical girl …

But she fled,
found assured her promise of calling me.
And she escaped,
found on fire her willing to love me.
Sensation
of knowing that she was the prey, fire and flesh,
and in the intense light of life she came to find me;
and she did.

Ella huyó - She fled (with ProgRockDan1)

One of my works recorded in my "previous" life before the war. Sometimes we feel tiny and lonely in the Universal. Lately I feel tiny and helpless facing the horrors of the war in my country...

Lyrics:

Talk is urgent
Try to hear
there’s a wall
in-between

Try to listen
Cannot hear
Our thoughts
in-between

A chasm separates us
Grows wider every day
We can’t hold both sides
Our grip is torn away
We watch this growing divide
That no words can ever cross
As our emotions break
Future and past is lost

It all falls on
our now deaf ears
Talk all day long 
No one ever hears

Voices all shout
Escalation
Brings regret
If we could hear
we could finally
Begin to see
what remains
Are memories that fade
We could listen
Instead… we wait to speak

Talk is urgent
Try to hear
there’s a wall
in-between

Try to listen
Cannot hear
Our thoughts
in-between

A chasm separates us
Grows wider every day
We can’t hold both sides
Our grip is torn away

Voices all shout
Escalation 
Brings regret
If we could hear
we could finally
Begin to see
what remains
Are memories that fade
We could listen
Instead… we wait to speak

Cancion del gato solitario

„Towards the Dawn" from the album Tides of Melancholy is an emotional journey between darkness and light. The track captures the essence of sorrow and hope, unfolding in delicate yet powerful melodies. With a tender piano performance accompanied by a soft violin, the song takes the listener into a world of reflection and inner transformation.

In an atmosphere that is both contemplative and uplifting, the track symbolizes the transition from difficult moments to new possibilities. Melancholy blends with a hint of hope, as if the darkness is being pierced by the first rays of morning.

Perfect for fans of cinematic, ambient, and instrumental music, looking for a sound that is both profound and uplifting.

„Towards the Dawn“ aus dem Album Tides of Melancholy ist eine emotionale Reise zwischen Dunkelheit und Licht. Der Song fängt die Essenz von Trauer und Hoffnung ein und entfaltet sich in sanften, aber kraftvollen Melodien. Mit einem zarten Klavierspiel, das von einer weichen Violine begleitet wird, entführt der Track den Hörer in eine Welt der Reflexion und des inneren Wandels.

In einer Atmosphäre, die gleichermaßen nachdenklich und erhebend ist, symbolisiert der Song den Übergang von schwierigen Momenten hin zu neuen Möglichkeiten. Die Melancholie vermischt sich mit einem Hauch von Hoffnung, als würde die Dunkelheit von den ersten Strahlen des Morgens durchbrochen.

About the Song

"Water to Wine" is a song about the appeal of perfection we often see online, contrasted with the seemingly unremarkable and ordinary lives that most of us lead. It’s a reflection on the emotional toll that comes from chasing validation through likes and follower counts— and the emptiness that can follow when the spotlight fades.

Our value, though, goes far deeper than what shows up on a screen and authenticity holds more power than appearances. Take a deep breath and if we look up from the scroll and take a brave look at the world — and each other — we might find something much more real!

Behind the Song (from Goff Johnson)

Ironically, while the message of the track talks about isolation and the cost of surface-level connection, the making of Water to Wine was the exact opposite of that! It came to life through collaboration with the incredibly talented Todd J McLean, who, in addition to his awesome vocals, and red-hot music connections, also created the cover art (Woman in Yellow Chair) for the track! The overall result is something far richer than either of us could have created alone.

Working together brought depth, direction, and new energy to the song — proof that the best things happen when we connect for real. No filters, just music, shared purpose, and mutual trust!

Final Notes (from Todd)

This is my first collaboration on SoundCloud. I could not have been more fortunate than to work with Goff Johnson, an immensely talented singer/songwriter/musician. When I first came across Goff, I listened to his entire Stories of Stardust album end-to-end and I was so impressed with this concept and significant body of work. I highly recommend checking it out on Goff’s SoundCloud page. https://soundcloud.com/goff-johnson/sets/stories-of-stardust?si=9db35566a42747b9b63a5780334f67ea&utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing

Although Water to Wine is not part of Goff’s Stardust series, it is nonetheless a beautifully written song and it’s been a privilege for me to sing it. Besides, I love to sing the Blues. Thank you so much, Goff!

We owe a huge shout-out to both Kat Hendrix, a master musician and our producer, and Tim Porter, a virtuoso on guitar. It is a real privilege to work with these West coast legends.

Lyrics: 

Verse 1
Someone wrote a playbook for perfection 
with lives of photo ops, their outtakes seldom seen 
today a star, the next you’re a pariah 
“Be Kind” they say, but that ain’t what they mean 
 
Chorus: 
Well I never watched the water turn to wine, 
and i never took a flower out of the desert, 
but i walked until my feet bled, and I looked until I was blind, 
and I reached out for a hand to hold in mine 
 
Verse 2 
Well there’s nothing quite as quiet as “the silence” 
after fame has passed, so flashbulb fast, away 
and i wonder if it really makes a difference 
cos the next in line wait for their time, to shine but not to stay”

Chorus: 
Well I never watched the water turn to wine, 
and i never took a flower out of the desert, 
but i walked until my feet bled, and I looked until I was blind, 
and I reached out for a hand to hold in mine

BRUTAL w/ Georg Boehme

Bruce Klepper's beautiful piece "Chiaroscur" inspired me a few ideas about art that I wrote in French. I sang them over Bruce's instrumental, improvising some melodies and vocal harmonies, and here is the result. 

*** L'ART POUR L'ART ***

L'art pour l'art, ou l'art pour l'argent?
Car il faut bien vivre, il faut bien survivre.
C'est bien évident...
Parfois c'est bien clair.
Parfois ça dépend…
Pour atteindre les rêves il faut rester sur sa faim,
et jeuner souvent, et prier longtemps.  
On prie quand on cherche la réponse dans l'âme,
la beauté dans le geste, le génie dans le vent.
L'obsession qui nous prend de puiser le néant,
de parfaire une esquisse, de créer tâtonnant,
c'est ça l'art pour l'art
qui coule dans le sang.

L' Art Pour L' Art (based on Bruce Klepper Chiaroscur instrumental)

Il Gigante di Monterosso – Feat: Sergei Govorov
June 2025
Duration: 3:20
Music Composition - Bruce Klepper
Effects and Mixing - John-Marc Ventimiglia 
Cover Art Photography- Heidi Schnicker 
Soprano Sax- Sergei Govorov 

On our recent trip to Italy, one of the places we stayed was Monterosso, one of the 5 villages in Cinque Terre. From our patio, we were able to see Il Gigante looking out over the ocean. I am pleased to announce this new music collaboration, Il Gigante di Monterosso - Feat: Sergei Govorov, celebrating the beauty of Italy.  Listen to Sergei's music on Spotify and Apple Music.
Sergei Govorov completed his doctoral degree at the Gnessin Academy of Music in Moscow with the highest honors.  In 2022, Sergei moved to the United States.  Sergei's repertoire ranges from classical saxophone to avant-garde, jazz, and pop. He has performed over 4,000 concerts worldwide.  For the last year I have been writing music for the sax and piano duo, Govorov & De Groot.  Sergei Govorov and Britta De Groot have performed my music in Colorado and have future plans for more concerts and possible recordings.

Il Gigante di Monterosso - Feat. Sergei Govorov (demo)

Marimba Musings and Other Variations is a high-concept, genre-blending sonic feast. Each track is a theatrical ode to a culture, dish, or myth, centered around the marimba — a rhythmic narrator guiding listeners through whimsical, dramatic, and high-energy soundscapes. From the stately romance of Biscuit Marimba to the operatic grandeur of Wagner Marimba, the volcanic bounce of Tsunami Marimba, and the slapstick funk of Croissant Marimba, every piece fuses orchestral craft with absurdist charm and global flavor. Packed with Dolby-level production, Quincy Jones–style arrangements, and bursts of chantable magic, this collection is a genre unto itself.

Track 11 Marimba Meditation North

The melody is light and spacious, as if you were looking at the endless sky.

War broke our lives to BEFORE and AFTER its start... Russian aggression has no boundaries, it's Universal. Our house happened to be on the war front line so our family had to leave behind our home and escape just to save our lives. We had spent 8 days in hell being under Russian missiles and bombs...
 In my "previous" life I used to create music and still have got some unreleased works.
 All the tracks are played, recorded and mixed on Yamaha Clavinova CVP505 without using any software.
Now I have no piano, no more chance to record music. The only sense of life is to survive. If you're Russian please don't follow me. We have nothing in common anymore. We'll never forgive you this disgusting bloody war against Ukrainian children. Each of you is GUILTY.
