SKY BURNS

A neoclassical testament to the value of retreat,
where silence gives birth to the most profound expressions,
contrapuncting the noise of our world.

This is the 2nd movement of my Symphony "Alive!".

Composed in the silence, solitude and fears of the Pandemic Lockdown.

Sigh of Retreat

Are you a hopeless romantic?  I think this piece reflects the feelings of the expectation, hopes and dreams in a budding romance. And, the intense vulnerability of each partner. I read "a hopeless romantic is someone who is idealistic about romantic love and hopes for a fairytale ending".  If you have experienced heartache or a failed marriage, you know this isn't always true.  But the power of love pulls us back in ways unexpected.  Have no regrets, seeking love is worth it!

Inspiration No. 06

Sunday Afternoon

la charrière profonde est un grand chemin creux, bordé de feuillus qui forment des arches pour abriter les rêves au pas du promeneur

en marchant dans la charrière profonde

Nocturne No. 1

Reflections on like, growing old, a little sad, but I think we all share emotions of good and bad times.

I Don,t Like Tomorrow Today

A song written and recorded shortly after visiting a large sleeping pig.

The drawing is of ferns playing a kalimba.

Instruments:
Kalimba, Tin Whistle, Synthesizer, Bell

The Sleeping Pig

A song recorded the day after recording "The Sleeping Pig". And before recording this song, I visited the same large sleeping pig as it was waking up for dinner from a nap in a mud bath. 

The photo is of myself playing the adungu used in this song, and Bomba the cat.

Instruments:
Adungu, Tin Whistles, Synthesizer, Bell

The Waking Pig

Instruments:
Acoustic guitar, Doug Tipple flute, Jerry Freeman tin whistle, glockenspiel

The New Donkey

Instruments:
Burke low G whistle, tenor guitar, organ

White Goat

An original tune written while watching a line of ducks waddle through grass and dandelions.

Instruments:
Kentucky mandolin, sleigh bells, claps, tenor guitar, Doug Tipple Flute

Ducks In The Grass

Original compositions played upon various acoustic instruments. 

At the moment, the majority of music I record is original folk tunes. Most of these tunes arise whilst out in natural ecosystems or shortly after visiting a natural ecosystem. The titles often reflect an aspect of the ecosystem I had noticed while the tune came about. Lately this is usually a species of bird.

Tin whistles and flutes appear the most often in my recordings; though mandolin, tenor guitar, lyre harp, jaw harp, dulcitar, and a handful of other instruments show up fairly often as well.

And here's some more music I've made along with my friend Dan Jones:
