Gorgeous composition and arrangement 🎶😊👏

Almost surreal... background strings pushing to be on the go, the clock ticking, got to get on, got to move... but those divine emotional but sorrowful strings that pull your heart won't let you go....  almost like someone watching the busy life out of their window whilst they cannot leave their place.  But the clock never stops and the world moves on ..... an amazing piece! 🎻🧡

This is really well done indeed. Great build and just a joy to listen to.

This heartfelt sketch for Piano and Strings is born out of a recent Improvisation that seeks to suggest the power and passion of Love's eternal nature. Impossible to do perhaps, yet if it is freely expressed... Love seems to travel like Light and bind giver and receiver together in a warm, rich, and almost unfathomable Oneness. 

So, here's to what is called 'Forever Love', and may everyone find it!  💖

Re Mixed and remastered one of my older songs.

A Song For A Dead Man

This is an instrumental made throughout the sound processing of one single vocal sample. All the sounds elements in the song are created by me, starting from the same single sample. Because of it, the song is called "Atomo"

Welcome to the third part of this very personal and emotional 4-Movement-Symphony !

An orchestral work about "HOME" is a great undertaking, with high expectations, which one actually almost has to fail at.
Therefore, I embark on a personal journey of thought and try to paint musical pictures with four movements from different viewpoints.

The first movement, introduced by a pathetic orchestral forte meanders - moves across stylistic zones, sometimes on the borderline of classical tonality, sometimes loud and self-confident, then desperate, often romantic and peaceful from scene to scene.
Fugue-like quotations are juxtaposed with post-romantic sequences. Film music-like moments duel with almost classical reminiscences.
This movement represents the restless quest that touches on many things but finishes very few. The last tones fade away with a romantic, allusive love scene and gentle slumber.

The second movement is marked by illness and melancholy. As it has happened many times in my musical endeavors, life sets strong impulses and overturns my original plans. 
It turned from a movement that was originally intended for love, to a fantasy about fever dreams and fear, caused by my sudden sickness. So this movement was getting quasi a setting about Corona.
Fever dreams, fears for my loved ones, weakness and deep griefs and heaviness weigh down the sounds. The situation seems hopeless.
Several times my beloved tries to lighten the state of mind - orchestrated by the English horn. These are the short moments when the music changes from minor to major for a few bars. The illness, however, remains dominant until this movement ends with a touch of hope.

The third movement dabbles in joie de vivre. A 6/8 time signature in the corner sections and 3/4 time in the middle section suggest lightness. Nevertheless, the piece remains rather subdued and demonstrates that life brings many burdens with it. The expression: Home cannot be found through exuberant celebration.

The fourth movement initially alludes to several events in the preceding movements. To illness, to travel, to loss, to transient joys. 
As it progresses, it deals with the people who are truly meaningful, my children, my family, my darling.
The finish is a declaration of love for people. The music becomes more and more romantic and expresses the joy of life.

Home is not found in places or in moods. 
It is a gift: Home is where the heart finds peace and tranquility.

Symphony of Home

Symphony of Home: III. Floating Dance

Dear friends, our summer is coming soon!
My little Granddaughter inspired me - she claims that new babies are miracles!!

Approximate translation into English 

Summer in Sweden

When our summer it comes here - to our country
to our town - then all the children want to go out
but what are they going to do there - they are running around
and they climb trees - and when the evening comes they fall asleep so sweetly
But when the sun wakes up again, the little miracles come out

But something is happening now - very sad
everything gets wet - but the children don't care
but it might be fun for them - something new is happening
They scratch each other - and when the evening comes they fall asleep so sweetly
But when the sun wakes up again, the little miracles come out

Has anyone cycled in the rain - great fun
lovely splash - but what do they say when kids get home
it may not be easy - to explain to them
why everything is so dirty - but when the evening comes the children fall asleep so sweetly
But when the sun wakes up again, the little miracles come out

In Swedish
Sommar i Sverige

När vår sommar den kommer hit - till vårt land
till vår stad - då vill alla barnen ut
men vad ska dom göra där - de skuttar runt
och dom klättrar i träd - o när kvällen kommer de somnar så sött
Men när solen åter vaknar då kommer de små miraklerna fram

Men det är nåt som händer nu - jätte trist
allt blir blött - men det struntar barnen i
men det kanske blir kul för dom - det händer nåt nytt
De kladdar på varann - o när kvällen kommer de somnar så sött
Men när solen åter vaknar då kommer de små miraklerna fram

Är det någon som har cyklat i regn - jättekul
härligt stänk - men vad säger dom när man kommer hem
det blir kanske inte lätt - att förklara för dom
varför allting är så skitt - men när kvällen kommer barnen somnar så sött
Men när solen åter vaknar då kommer de små miraklerna fram
