THRUSH SONG lyrics
Ivy League Alma Mater.
Garage Band does pretty good trombones. All we need is words… Anybody? Theme 96
Traditional, but pretty, I think. Theme 98
This one is for chasing butterflies. I thought this must have been what I looked like at age four or five, trying to catch butterflies with my hands.
This is the first instrumental composition I ever wrote, in 1962, with the help of Bruce Markkula, who studied guitar with Johnny Smith.
As it currently sounds…
Try “Lullaby for Fizzy” as a bedtime song. But it needs good speakers. Fizzy is a little girl, now about fifteen, in Chicago. She won’t mind if we share her lullaby.
As we approach Autumn, the crickets begin their plaintive calls each night. If you have little kids, teach them to love the cricket songs. I made a lullaby for them, complete with crickets!
