Guitar Dialogue(Guitar solo)

Piano variations on an orchestral theme drawn from Rimsky-Korsakov's Scheherazade Opus 35. Your time is better spent listening to the extraordinary beauty of this work by Rimsky-Korsakov. Behold the fire...not the shadow cast

First Variation on Op. 35 Rimsky-Korsakov

(fast) frei improvisiert, wenig Technik (aber oho...), spontan ohne Vorbereitung - einfach drauflos...

„Heilig“ „Sacre“  „Sagrada“  (03.07.2023)


Diese Komposition widme ich dem katalanischen Baumeister Antoni Gaudi und seinem großen Bauwerk „Sagrada Familia“

Eine Verwandte erzählte mir staunend von der Besichtigung dieser Basilika.
Dabei zeigte sie mir viele schöne Fotos dieser wunderschönen Kirche.
Ein Foto habe ich als Motiv-Cover für meine Veröffentlichung dieser Komposition verwendet.

Der Bau wurde im Jahre 1882 begonnen und wird voraussichtlich im Jahre 2026 zum 100. Todestages Antonio Gaudi fertiggestellt sein. Somit hätte die Vollendung dieses sacralen Bauwerks 144 Jahren gedauert.
Dies ist für ein derart monumentales Bauwerk eine recht kurze Bauzeit, wenn man bedenkt,
dass die Erbauung des Kölner Doms  vom Architekt „Meister Gerhard“ 632 Jahre bis zur Vollendung benötigte. 

Antoni Gaudi war auch ein sehr gläubiger Mensch.
Seine Vision die Erschaffung eines Sühnetempel der Heiligen Familie.
Auf die Unmöglichkeit einer baldigen Fertigstellung angesprochen, antwortete Gaudi:
„Meine Kunde hat keine Eile“

Auf diesen Satz hin bezieht sich auch meine inspirierte Komposition.
Die Vision eines sacralen Klangwerks.
In diesem Sinne hat auch meine musikalische Arbeit keine Eile.

Vielen Dank für Eure geschätzte Aufmerksamkeit.

"Holy" "Sacre" "Sagrada" (07/03/2023)


I dedicate this composition to the Catalan master builder Antoni Gaudi and his great building "Sagrada Familia"

A relative told me in amazement about visiting this basilica.
She showed me many beautiful photos of this beautiful church.
I used a photo as a motif cover for my publication of this composition.

Construction began in 1882 and is expected to be completed in 2026 on the 100th anniversary of Antonio Gaudi's death. Thus, the completion of this sacred structure would have taken 144 years.
This is quite a short construction time for such a monumental structure, considering
that the construction of the Cologne Cathedral by the architect "Master Gerhard" needed 632 years to complete.

Antoni Gaudi was also a very religious person.
His vision of creating a temple of expiation for the Holy Family.
Asked about the impossibility of an early completion, Gaudi replied:
"My client is in no hurry"

My inspired composition also refers to this sentence.
The vision of a sacred sound work.
In this sense, my musical work is not in a hurry.

Thank you for your valued attention.

Sagrada

....... my original work from the last two days - 135 BPM - C minor
photo by Aliaksei Lepik, Gdańsk, Poland .... enjoy the vibe !

My album draws inspiration from Tonalism, an art movement known for its tranquil and ethereal landscapes. Through ambient and chill beats, I paint sonic vistas of serene melodies, subtle harmonies, and gentle rhythms. Like Tonalist painters, I seek to evoke a sense of calm and introspection in listeners, transporting them to a dreamy world of tranquility. Each track mirrors the movement's soft brushstrokes, creating a harmonious journey that reflects the essence of Tonalism's meditative beauty. Embrace the soothing ambiance and immerse yourself in the canvas of sound I've woven.

Enchanted Solitude

Call me a loser yeah
Well that don't bother me
I've been the punch bag
Youngest in my family
And what did that achieve
Just had me growing up strong

So take your stab at me
Be sure to laugh at me
And kid yourself that I'm
A victim of conspiracy
Well you're just feeding me
With the words to this song

So make fun of me
Make fun of me
Make everybody wanna run away from me
I can take it on the chin
Better than anyone I've ever known

You call me crazy well
That's pretty lazy hey ?
That's not the kind of word
That's ever gonna save me now
Ain't that what you want,
To convert me to your norm?

Call me delusional
Well I know that about me
'Cause I'm a dreamer
Kind of goes with the territory
But I can meditate
Within the eye of a storm

So make fun of me
Make fun of me
Make everybody wanna run away from me
I can take it on the chin
Better than anyone I've ever known

So make fun of me
Make fun of me
Don't be satisfied 'til everybody's done with me
I can take it I won't bite
Not tonight
Don't waste your time on me
Don't waste your time on me

You might be waiting 'til the end of time
You could be waiting 'til the end of time
You may be waiting 'til the end of time
Ahh ahh ahh ahh

You might be waiting 'til the end of time
You may be waiting 'til the end of time
Do you have 'til the end of time?
Ahh ahh ahh ahh

Make Fun Of Me

SEBANDO & Power Death Panther Claw - Smoke & Mirrors (dj baubau remix)

part 1 & 2.
This was one of the earlier bits of music I recorded shortly after a 20 year (hard to believe) 'break' from writing music. It's also one of the very few songs that were just solo piano and which I could play without multiple tracks. So it was surprising that this took only about 2 days from initial conception to final recording - even though I've revised it a few times since then, as usual (thus this latest re-upload).  I may try to add some strings to this one day, which I think would work nicely.  


All comments welcome, and don't be shy to be critical or suggest ideas to help me improve. :)

A New Nostalgia... (solo piano)

Erelong Backdate Bolt Creek Agenda

An old and accomplished matador  is sitting on the porch of his hacienda  in the North of Spain, smoking a pipe and reminiscing about the glory days of a colourful life he has lived. Love,fame, deception... he had it all and he would never change a thing!

Mixing Spanish flavour with Electro.... decided  to travel to la España today....
