Hi My interest in music reaaly started when I saw the Beatles movie "A hard days night" on TV when I was 12 years old. It took a while to talk my parents into buying a guitar, but a year later I started playing the Beatles songs I liked so much. Two years later I got my first electric guitar and I joined a local band with three other guys. We all thought we were close to heaven. At about the age of 17 my musical interests changed from mainstream rock-music to more progressive stuff like Yes, Pink Floyd, Genesis(1970 to 1974) and most of all King Crimson. My bandmates did not like this kind of music as well and so our band split. Long years I played all by myself but I had a lot of ideas in my head that could not come out. In 1998 I found a computer software that let me realize all my ideas. Harmony Assistant. That is a composing and arranging software that comes with a 1st class soundbase so now I could play all the instruments that I never had the money to buy. All the music you find here is created with the help of the computer. No real instruments, no real voices. I hope you enjoy listening to it.

Story behind the song
I tried to express Shakespeares words with modern music.
Lyrics
SONNET 73 That time of year thou mayst in me behold When yellow leaves, or none, or few, do hang Upon those boughs which shake against the cold, Bare ruin'd choirs, where late the sweet birds sang. In me thou seest the twilight of such day As after sunset fadeth in the west, Which by and by black night doth take away, Death's second self, that seals up all in rest. In me thou see'st the glowing of such fire That on the ashes of his youth doth lie, As the death-bed whereon it must expire Consumed with that which it was nourish'd by. This thou perceivest, which makes thy love more strong, To love that well which thou must leave ere long.
