New Songs
I don’t know what my life might have been like if I’d been able to make music like this when I was a kid listening to Tchaikovsky and Beethoven and Brahms. I couldn’t imagine sitting at a computer and getting sounds like this, even though it is generally less esthetically pleasing than a real orchestra. I have no training in music, but if I could have done this, I might have dived into a music major.
Songs to Close Out the 2nd Covid Year
Two December pieces to enjoy (I hope).
More Poems and Songs
More Speculation…
Have fun with a couple pieces of music.
Two More Pieces
To Start Autumn. Both written in the last month. If you like them, tell me generally where you are. Thank you for listening!
New Music
Here are two pieces I’ve been waiting to put in the blog. The first (Theme 42) is an experimental piece. The second (Theme 160) is called “The Last Hours.” You can listen to this while you read the poem about the end of the Age of Enlightenment.
Three Blind Mice
And two piano pieces for you musicians.
Songs New and Old
Here are three songs. The first is a revision of a 2018 piece that needed a lot of work. I like it much better now. The next two are lullabies. Now that I have a tiny grandson, I have an excuse to write lullabies. What fun. And a sad butterfly to wonder about.
Lullaby
This is another lullaby for my sweet grandson, Sammy, in Australia. May butterflies fly in your dreams!
