"Heroic duck rescue by mi esposa" inspired music. She discovered the fowl beast on it's back, squawking and squrming in the late spring sun at the "Dollars Tree," in the parkng lot. Hot asphalt. We didn't think there was any chance.

sweet release

It’s all around
Daylight breaks on frozen ground
And I've never told you
How good it feels to grow old with you

The night is cold and hard as steel
But you and I will never feel
The silent night the shivering morning
This burning ember heats our home

Its all above
An icy wind. A burning sun
And I’ve never told you
How good it feels to come home to you

The night is ours. It’s short but sweet 
And desperate hours before the week
A daily grind a cold design
This burning ember heats our home

So cry out
What's wrong with the world?
Why can’t they see
Things like you and me?

It’s all around
Daylight breaks on golden ground
Have I ever told you
How good it feels to have grown old with you?

The night is hard and cold as steel 
But you and i will never feel
The hardened heart, the cold of shoulder
This burning ember heats our home

It's All Around

1
 Birthday in rain
　Wet sidewalk
Walking alone
I can't hold your shoulder
You were always by my side, showing me your quiet smile
　You were wrong, but I was wrong too
I thought we understood each other.
We've been growing apart for so long

  Birthday in rain
Wet sidewalks
Walking alone
Your voice is
Somehow it's so sweet

2
 Birthday in rain
Treading on Dead Leaves
My feet are heavy too
The town looks so happy

Your voice is
Kindly and warm
Swirling in my heart

Though the north wind pushes at my back
The gates of winter that stand harshly
That won't let me walk forward
I can't stop thinking back

 Birthday in rain
Walking alone in the cold
I suddenly think of you

Birthday In Rain

This is a story that takes place post World War II in which a migrant farm worker has an unexpected love affair with the landowner's wife. Since the lyrics are difficult to make out, I have posted them below. Thank you for listening. Without you, there's no music at all. 

THE WINDMILL

And the day has come for barley and rye
Gold sunset rests in the field
Haven't come home, heart of steel

Fog clearing from her mind
All the time, will take time
Eternity

Shadows tell him he's lost his mind
Seasons change before her eyes
A tragedy

Whilst the wind blow upon that bluff
A brazen key
The beast that pulls the plow
A calm reprieve

The eyes, they locked the door
The barn, love's web will weave
Haven't even talked
Knees trembling gently

Passing through this time and place
How would I know?

The Windmill 🐄

Heaven's The Only Place

Through this meditative track, I wanted to express my feelings at the moment of performance. It is completely improvisation, without preparation. There are 3 themes here, which develop, intertwine with each other. This track is called the River of Life, expressing all fluidity, changeability, sometimes unexpectedness and beauty our life

REMEMBERING
This is a piece of nostalgia and deep longing. It just came out one day much to my surprise at least 12 years ago and I very recently decided to redo it as the piece was never was completely finished in the way that I wanted it to be. 

In hindsight this was a big mistake because in opening up old digital files you have to deal with outdated VI string libraries and possible glitches and incompatibilities. In this case, not only was the string library very old, but it had also gone out of business, so there was no way of updating it, so I had to find a substitute which would do the same things that it did. All the libraries are configured differently as well. I think it was done in Kontakt 2 originally?

Perseverance and patience reigned and here we are. So easy to say now, but so hard to do. I almost gave up a couple of times. Every experience is a learning opportunity. The solo violin virtual instrument is by the one and only Kirk Hunter. It’s a bit unwieldy, but I love its sense of expression and wild adventure. Perfect for this piece. And there were no compatibility issues with it either. 

Artwork and design by yours truly. 

Remembering

Fair is an old school piece with a calm romantic mood. Hope you enjoy...
