This was supposed to accompany some vocals, but I realized it worked better as an instrumental piece. A different version with the vocals will follow at some point.

This is the tenth in a series of gentle, experimental, guitar based instrumentals. There's maybe one more track to come in the collection.
This one was inspired by an exhausting but rewarding climb to the top Pen y Fan, the highest peak in the lovely Brecon Beacon National Park in south Wales, UK (see Video)
Thanks for listening ........... Richard :)

Double Sonata No. 2 for Bb Clarinet and Piano (mastered by eMastered.com)

This was written in South Africa in 1987, a few years before the release of Nelson Mandela - really digging into the archives here! It was one of a handful of songs co-written with Pravinand (@johnny-minstrel). I had the first verse and an inkling of a melody, and Pravinand finished it off. We were very chuffed by the end result. Hope you like it.

The Prisoner (Peters/Maharaj)

The empty space he feared
Was fixed between his ears
To live is but to bear
The scourge of twilight years
He lost the strength to fight
He lost the will to live
For all that was his right
They took away from him

He cannot move his arms
The iron weighs him down
His feet, they cannot dance
He feels no joyful sound
He alone must grieve
The toll of passing years
He alone must feel
The loneliness and fears

His eyes reflect the pain
A man should never bear
How long will he sustain
To hurt for what is fair
And in the dark he prays
No one hears his heart
Except the one who made
Man from dust and blood

The Prisoner

The Wonderful Fleursonseaux let me write a song to his astonishing track "Old Empty Room" i tried to be as sensitive as i could to the original mood.

Lyrics:-
In this old town
When snow comes down
There's not much chance of it laying
The roads go brown
In this dirty town
And stops the kids from playing

The old empty room
Down the hall
Is like December
A Winter so bare
Like the room 
'Cause you're not there

The walls are so cold
Like your heart
As I remember
A small chink of light 
From the blinds 
We used to share

The echoes of
Your laughter now
Brings teardrops to my eye
The memory of 
Faded joy
Like dusty air in sunlight

The old empty room
Down the hall
Is like December
A Winter so bare
Like the room 
'Cause you're not there

The walls are so cold
Like your heart
As I remember
A small chink of light 
From the blinds 
We used to share

"So Long" Electronic music with vocals and guitar,

So Long

UNE ROUTE QUI DÉROUTE À CIEL OUVERT
L’AUTOMNE QUI S’ÉTONNE D’ÊTRE DÉJÀ L’HIVER
DANS LE NOIR OÙ SCINTILLENT LES YEUX JAUNES D’UN CHAT
LA FILLE SE DÉSHABILLE SE GLISSE SOUS TES DRAPS

ET MOI 

UNE ROUTE SOUS LA VOUTE INTERSTELLAIRE
LA LUNE QUI S’ALLUME AU CLAIR DE LA TERRE
LA FILLE SE RHABILLE ELLE NE REVIENDRA PAS 
HEY MEC RAMASSE TES BILLES ET PUIS MEC OUBLIE LA
 
ÇA BRILLE LÀ-HAUT ÇA SCINTILLE MAIS ÇA N’AVEUGLE QUE TOI
LE SOLEIL EN BAS RÉSILLE ME CASSE LA GUEULE DE BOIS

UNE ROUTE QUI DÉROUTE À CIEL OUVERT
UN CAMION QUI CAMIONNE À TOMBEAU OUVERT
