I thoroughly enjoyed this...beautiful playing! :)

Orchestral Synth II (another collaboration with Prof Sound-Love)

'Juggling With Live Grenades' is a mixed genre track originally intended as a backing track to a monologue. However the other person involved pulled out and so I "expanded" the track and here is the result.

Juggling With Live Grenades

snowflakes gently fall
cold winter’s pale sakura
I envy the birds

This beautiful haiku was written by Scott.

Etude Esquisse no.9 by Gerald Garcia - William Ghezzi, Guitar

A rainy day rehearsal recording of 'Not a Day Goes By' from Merrily We Roll Along, music & lyrics by Stephen Sondheim.  Sung by Stacie Eirich, soprano. Piano by Karen Strickland.

Yes, the rain in the background of the track is real. It just seemed to fit the mood of the song, and so I decided to keep it and share. I hope you enjoy! It's one of my favorite Sondheim songs. -Stacie

Not a Day Goes By, music & lyrics by Stephen Sondheim

Lyrics:
Even if you fall

 

I can see you

And your way to you

I can see you

How you get lost

Let me go with you

 

On and on, on and on

with you.

 

It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter

Even if you fall ...

I go the way with you

 

You can't walk anymore

Can't be you anymore

Is your way

Is the way too far for you?

Come on, let go and go

 

On and on, on and on

with me.

 

It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter

Even if you fall ...

Stay on the way with you



Auch wenn du fällst

Incursion

I'm waving from the shop window with no shame
Tell me something I don't know and then say it again
I'm a sight for the sore eyes with no shame
You told a dirty little secret and then came

CHORUS
A false confidence is something I don't lack
I'm in slow motion
Afro hair and an aphrodisiac
What a potion!
Raise a glass to me cuz I've no shame

Have your eyes popped from sockets?  What a shame
If you haven't tried and don't know it all the same
I'm a one in a million so I claim
Sit back and enjoy the exhibition.  They came

CHORUS

Everybody's talked of the shame of it
Everybody chalked up a stain from it

CHORUS

The Shame Of It
