Super interesting!  Love that dissonant harmonic minor riff

Relaxing with an oriental touch , merci Didier

A song about mixed feelings around coming home.

Lyrics:
Home for three days just a short stay
Just enough time to do my washing and
Phone a few friends for a few words
Catch up on all the sleep I’ve been missing then
Write a postcard to a friend in pain
Home for three days—I’m back again

Home for three days, take a bath and shave
Shake the dust from my body and
All the thoughts of foreign ways
Laid to rest in my memory
Listen to an old song with a close friend
Home for three days—wish they’d never end

Home for three days and my turn
To wash the stairs and sweep the alleyway
Join the dole queue, pay the fuel bill
Find my room’s in such a state again
Grey and chilly skies, nights drawing in
Home for three days—where to begin

Home for three days, back in old ways
Troubles resurfacing, walls need plastering
Home for three days, happy anyway
In three days time, I’ll leave it all behind again…

From Creative Spirit Online: "The seventh of Robert John Brooks’s piano sonatas; stunning, challenging works of atonal, abstract musical art. No. 7 is in three movements; intense, almost Baroque in its contrapuntal texture, with a masterful sense of cadence, and textural/dynamic/emotional contrast."

“Piano Sonata No. 7” was completed in May, 2022 in Fairview, TX.  
The work is in three movement with only a slight pause between movements. 

Performance time is about 17 3/4 minutes.

Piano Sonata No.7 (mastered by eMastered.com)

A song about interruptions.

Lyrics:
In the time of Walter Cronkite
And Huntley and Brinkley
Reporting all the news
Straight forward and succinctly
Programs people watched
Would dissolve with proclamation
With words that froze the viewing nation

"We interrupt this program"

Back then things were black and white
Except for a couple wars
One was cold the other hot
Whatever that war was for
Could be 'bout weather or sport
Or something thing Kruschev said
And Kenneydy's retort

This is a "special report"

Cuba had the Bay of Pigs
That stained the CIA
Bullets flew in Dallas
No one forgot that day
Martin down in Memphis
Robert down in L.A.

"We interrupt this program"
Brought fear of what they'd say

Now we have the world wide web
And all that that implies

The news comes from the people
And seen through world wide eyes

We interrupt this program
Can still grab our attention
With so much going on these days

It's hardly worth the mention

This is a special report

Stand by for breaking news

We interrupt this program

Have we got news for you!

And that's the way it was.
