Fili Omorfi (Schoene Freundin) Fili Omorfi (Schoene Freundin)
Solo piano version - a good-bye to a leaving friend, with wishes for a warm welcome at her destination.
Reve de roses Reve de roses
Impromptu live songwriting and recording with Katha. Pardon the atrocious pronunciation (hence, grammar screw-ups); not used either to speaking French or to playing guitar. Least of all simultaneously.
Last Dance (orchestral version) Last Dance (orchestral version)
Two orchestras, French horns, pizzicato and marcato strings, some more underlying strings, a music box, glockenspiel, and orchestra hit to accompany the piano. One might say I overdid it - you barely see the cake beneath the topping. Enjoy!
Last Dance piano version Last Dance piano version
The "Light" version of Last Dance, with most instruments either muted or turned down. The piano touches more 'lightly' to allow the vocals total lee. Full version under www.soundclick.com/sard!
Pvt. Reeson's Theme Pvt. Reeson's Theme
Pvt. Thevois o'Reeson's theme in "The Perfect Society - a Manual"
Ouverture Ouverture
The ouverture of "A Perfect Society - a Manual"; you might call it chamber music.
La Chanson de Robespierre La Chanson de Robespierre
Maximilien de Robespierre affords us a patriotic glimpse of what his "perfect society" ought to look like. He is accompanied by the Choeur des Sans-Culottes Hibernal '02. Whee... great job.
Joe V. Shrub's song Joe V. Shrub's song
Written for the 2005 Victor Klemperer Youth competition, part of a radio play. Joe V. Shrub, upstanding citizen of the world's only hegemony, makes known his view of... differently colored people.
Christmas Serenade Christmas Serenade
Ein Klavierlied im 3/4-Takt... ich habe ziemlich planlos eine Violine (Schlag 1-2) und ein Horn (Schlag 3) dazu eingespielt. Es klingt nicht gut. Vielleicht aber interessant... wo liegt der rhythmische Schwerpunkt? ;)
Weihnacht Weihnacht
Sehr ghetto "on-the-fly" aus 3 MIDI-Spuren auf eine Audiospur aufgenommen. Eigentlich nur, um den Violinen-Sound des e-Pianos auszuprobieren... im Nachhinein ist dazu eine Begleitung aus Klavier und Orgel entstanden. Sehr off-beat. Egal.
Salut, la fille Salut, la fille
The piano rudiments of what is to become a song in French: a greeting to an unknown girl, never to be encountered again, from train to passing train.
Romance Romance
A short song wherein I picked up the main theme from "Romancette", which seemed kind of nice to me. A rudimentary baseline underlines it.
Noyer, langtemps, dans la piscine Noyer, langtemps, dans la piscine
Drowning in a limpid pool... it seems to last eternities. A million bubbles escape and rise to the surface, bursting above as the sun spills caustic reflections on you.
Romancette Romancette
A little romance. It could take place anywhere, at any time, between any two of us. It lasts for a day, you give and you receive, and part happily. What could be nicer?
Noir Noir
A friend showed me a short excerpt from the namesake anime series. I've never really watched it, nor do I know the story, but the song seemed fitting to the slow-motion, surreal gun-fighting scene depicted.
Nocturne Nocturne
Mellow nights might sound like this - but do not take my word for it.
Lily Lily
All you see is a lake; silver where the sun floats, slate gray and opaque where it does not. On it there is a single lily. You could watch it for hours...
England England
Austere, bracing, fresh; smacks of carefully trimmed hedges, morning mist, and shrubberies.
Late Late
It is late at night, but warm thoughts keep you awake. The bed beckons - but it can wait!
