Jazzy

A jazzy lullaby. I found this beautiful poem called 'The Pleasant Dark' by Annette Wynne, and stitched it with something I was improvising one morning.  I then immediately felt like having a nap. 

The pleasant dark that comes at night
Is just as friendly as the light,
Dark wraps a curtain over all—
The trees, the houses, far and tall;
The pleasant dark comes down to bless
The world with mother-tenderness.
She folds her children in her arms
And keeps them safe from loud alarms;
The far green hills where children play
Are hidden till the brand-new day.
For hills and eyelids know what's best—
That darkness-time is time for rest.
The pleasant dark that comes at night
Is just as friendly as the light.

by Annette Wynne

Lyrics:

La luna ya salió 
Y yo estoy pensando en vos
Las estrellas iluminan
Esta dulce melodia

Cuando pienso en amor
Se me rice la piel
Yo quiero tu sabor
Y sentir tu calor
No me dejes asi
Hoy te pido perdón
Dame una señal 
Muestra el camino

Dame tu amor (x7)

Compartir mis sueños con tu voz
Porque este mundo es de los dos
No hay mas tiempo que perder
Deja tus miedos
Vente conmigo

Dame tu amor (x7)

Cuando pienso en amor
Se me rice la piel
Yo quiero tu sabor
Y sentir tu calor
No me dejes asi
Hoy te pido perdón
Dame una señal
Muestra el camino

Dame tu amor (x7)
Oooohh

Dame tu amor (x7)

An idea that I'm working on the Rhodes. Composing a piece in classical style on an electric piano gives it a very different feel, both in terms of playing style (automatically sounds jazzy) and in terms of sound - it brings out those undertones and harmonics. 

I'll upload a full version of this once it's finished, but hope you like what I've got so far :) 

Here's a video of me playing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-imEDkQukVY

Mind-wandering

In my dreams I sometimes dive in the wide ocean or in deep water. Sometimes I find myself surrounded with sharks, sometimes I have to find my way through storms.

I always wake up very agitated after these dreams. Diving in deep water is an emotional adventure I tried to capture in this song.

Thank you, Adam, for giving it a last shape...

This tune is my deepest connection to my dad , who recently celebrated his 70th birthday... Whenever my dad, the maestro of jazz, would start playing this, I would melt and give up anything just to be able to play like him one day... one day when I grow up...

I practiced this only for one month, I admit. Because ever since he stopped playing "Moonlight Serenade", I had almost forgotten it... And a month ago, while doing my daily reading of music, I bumped into this piece again. All the memories and gratitude came back and this is my attempt to transfer my dad's birthday into Valentine's Day, and just share this moonlight from our studio...

By the way my dad stopped playing around my current age, and then, 20 years later, while visiting us in Canada, he just played this tune, perfectly in Bill Evans style...

"Moonlight Serenade" (Glenn Miller). Improvised by Milana Zilnik
