UP TO THE MOUNTAIN

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. —Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Martin Luther King dreamed of a worldwide love that transcended race, religion, and background. Patty Griffin gave melody to that vision in this song — and in this soaring, gospel-infused rendition, Kellerman takes listeners again to the mountain peak, lifted upwards by full band, choir, and the lush colors of his flute.

04 Up To The Mountain

The love of brotherhood, whether forged by blood or circumstance, can be unbreakable. Just look at the partnership forged between Kellerman and his Winds of Samsara collaborator, Ricky Kej, as proof of how mutual respect and admiration can span oceans and result in beautiful works of art — including this powerful and uplifting track, which the team composed, recorded, and produced together across thousands of miles. “Aishwarya” tells the story of a young country girl seemingly destined for a simple life of domesticity. Instead, she summons the courage to disrupt tradition and defy expectations, to leave her home and study, to build a better life for herself, her family, and her community. This beautiful arrangement speaks to the love we must have for ourselves in order to make great risks — and follow even greater dreams.

WINTER 
(featuring Soweto Gospel Choir) 

Is love an art? Then it requires knowledge and effort. — Erich Fromm

Great classical composers like Antonio Vivaldi have spoken the language of love with unmatched fluency, translating its transcendent power into timeless melodies and harmonies. Here, an excerpt from Vivaldi’s beloved Four Seasons is given new life through the vivid voices of the Soweto Gospel Choir— and Kellerman’s unmistakable solo flute voice leading the way.

SI DO MHAIMEO

This traditional Irish song speaks of a young man on the verge of marrying an older woman for her wealth. Will he marry her, the song asks, and will he drink away her fortune as soon as he gains it? Kellerman weaves this tongue-in-cheek tale with jaunty and playful flights of flute and orchestra.

ZININZI
(featuring The Soil)
From Johannesburg to New York, Rio de Janeiro to Tokyo, fascinating cities have drawn so many of us into life-changing affairs of the heart. Yet as this propulsive track makes clear, great things can blossom just as fruitfully outside the concrete jungle as within. Kellerman composed this ode to the countryside with multi-platinum-selling South African acapella singing group The Soil. Here, he revisits the song’s rollicking hills and rolling meadows with tight vocal harmonies and drivingly percussive grooves.

lyrics:

One plus one it might sound easy but it's never quite like that. Even if we never speak, I'll always have your back.

One plus one, it might sound simple but it's never what it seems. Even if our lives are changing, we meet up in our dreams.

Don't ever think of giving up, or doing what your told.
Don't ever forget what your worth, it's rubies, diamonds, gold.

We can find another way, rules are breaking.
We can live another day, it is ours for the taking.
 We can stand, demand another.
We can party til' it's over.

One plus one, the same old story and it's never gonna change. Even if the sun is rising, the shadow still remains.

But ooh I never felt so clear, I want to live without the fear.
Ooh I think I came so near, but died too young and now I'm here.

We can find another way, rules are breaking. 
We can live another day, it is ours for the taking. 
We can stand, demand another.
We can party til' it's over.

Still Hiding

Italo brothers- stamp on the ground

Well... it's been a while, and in light of the 6 (!) month hiatus here on SoundCloud, I wanted to make sure the wait was worth it. I've taken a few of the comments on "The Moon Rises" into consideration: this song is quite a bit longer and it features a female vocal! *yay* And I will be posting the Karaoke version soon.

Please welcome the newest member of ponyphonic: Christina!

Lullaby for a Princess

Just as she promised, Luna stood her ground and refused to lower the moon. Faced with the collapse of the delicate order they had worked so hard to build, Celestia was forced to do the unthinkable. Unable to fully utilize of the elements of harmony by herself, she used a fraction of their power to imprison her sister in the moon, saving the world, but at a terrible cost. The harmonic bond between sun and moon was broken forever; now, the elements lie dormant, awaiting new bearers. In time, the darkness in Luna's heart will begin to wane, but with it, so will the sealing spell that holds her in the moon. In a thousand years, she will escape, weakened but still powerful, and the world can only hope that new ponies will be found who can wield the elements and save Luna from herself.

But Celestia's thoughts turn again to the present. It will be centuries before she can see her sister again, and for that, she blames herself. Surely she had seen the signs? She thinks over and over of the things she might have said and done differently. But despite her own sadness, she also longs to reach out and comfort Luna, and in this mix of bitterness, tenderness, and very distant hope, she looks to the moon and begins to sing.

--------------------------------------------------------

Fate has been cruel and order unkind
How can I have sent you away?
The blame was my own; the punishment, yours
The harmony's silent today

But into the stillness I'll bring you a song
And I will your company keep
Till your tired eyes and my lullabies
Have carried you softly to sleep

Once did a pony who shone like the sun
Look out on her kingdom and sigh
She smiled and said, "Surely, there is no pony
So lovely and so well beloved as I"

So great was her reign and so brilliant her glory
That long was the shadow she cast
Which fell dark upon the young sister she loved
And grew only darker as days and nights passed

Lullay moon princess, goodnight sister mine
And rest now in moonlight's embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space

Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Luna, you're loved so much more than you know
Forgive me for being so blind

Soon did that pony take notice that others
Did not give her sister her due
And neither had she loved her as she deserved
She watched as her sister's unhappiness grew

But such is the way of the limelight, it sweetly
Takes hold of the mind of its host
And that foolish pony did nothing to stop
The destruction of one who had needed her most

Lullay moon princess, goodnight sister mine
And rest now in moonlight's embrace
Bear up my lullaby, winds of the earth
Through cloud, and through sky, and through space

Carry the peace and the coolness of night
And carry my sorrow in kind
Luna, you're loved so much more than you know
May troubles be far from your mind
And forgive me for being so blind

The years now before us
Fearful and unknown
I never imagined
I'd face them on my own

May these thousand winters
Swiftly pass, I pray
I love you; I miss you
All these miles away

May all your dreams be sweet tonight
Safe upon your bed of moonlight
And know not of sadness, pain, or care
And when I dream, I'll fly away and meet you there
Sleep...
