There is a summer festival in Japan where children make paper crafts to hang on bamboo trees. Based on the legend that this is to be the only day in the whole year when two lovers (stars) that were separated by the Milky Way get to meet one another, people also make wishes and hang them on the bamboo. I think this tradition shows that we want to believe that there are miracles in this world - that there are times when impossible things become possible. 

This prelude is warm, bright and vast. It consists of three main components: The first is the light and airy introduction and ending portraying paper crafts wavering on the tree. The second component depicts the calm stars above, in G major. The third part is the theme from the first prelude (“Paper Birds”). This theme that is shared between the first and last preludes act as bookends as they unite the idea of things we humans make with our hands and send out our thoughts up into the universe.

Lately I've been listening to a lot of music composed by Gustavo Santaollala from the Last of Us soundtrack. I tried to paint somewhat similar moods with this song.

All Is Lost

🎶 For Freddie – A tribute to a legend 🎶

“For Freddie” is my tribute to a legend, inspired by one of his songs and, in a way, his life itself. Created, played, and arranged tonight in a single take, I sought to channel the vibrant spirit, depth, and charisma that Freddie embodied. When we give music to music, something transcendent is born—a cycle of inspiration, resilience, and emotion that only music can truly capture. I hope my listeners feel that shared energy and enjoy this journey with me.

With my new gear, this piece has a richer, fuller quality. For the best experience, listen with a headset or a great sound system to catch every detail. Hope you feel the spark that brought this to life! #ForFreddie #OneTake #NewSetup #Inspired

MISTER HAPPY GO LUCKY (Bob Dormer/Audric Jankauskas)

I really enjoy the "Flotsam and Jetsam" chapter in "The Lord of the Rings", where Pippin's pipe is smoked during a very peaceful and silly feeling moment of storytelling and reuniting, so I named this original tune for that moment.

Instruments:
tenor guitar, Parks high D whistle, Kentucky mandolin, ghungroo bells, tinghsa bells, a regular bell, sleigh bells, and clapping

The Hobbit Pipe Hornpipe

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:
