acapella vocal loop
In the bleak midwinter
Frosty wind made moan
Earth stood hard as iron
Water turned to stone
Snow had fallen
Snow on snow on snow
In the bleak midwinter
Long, long ago
- Christina Rossetti 1872

A rough month for rock stars
All the good ones are leaving
It's about that time
Just the songs remain and
Public grieving

There was a place for me

Inside your heart

There was a place for you
And I thought always true
Inside my heart
Inside my heart
I didn't think that it could go

SHINY THINGS
Like the shiny things a crow stashes
Crumpled napkins and cold ashes
Like broken pieces when the bottle smashes
My tears don't mean anything at all
Like the golden rings around your fingers

I had to write the rest.
ALL IN
You've been holding back for so long now
And I've been losing track of how many times I've written my vows
It feels like you're sleeping behind the…
This piece is somewhat programmatic, somewhat expressive. I wanted to tell a story of moving from a dark place of drudgery and powerlessness to finding courage, strength, purpose, and joy.
Created for the Record Every Month challenge for July…
Lots of loud noise going on with the refurbishment of the condo I live in, so thought I would haul out the horn and honk along. Been away for a couple of weeks working on a 50th anniversary restaging of David Tudor's Rainforest IV in Kingston…
