Sweet

(originally posted in 2006)
My younger brother in law asked me to show him how use my recording software (Garageband) on my Apple Computer. So I put together this loop in about 5 minutes. When it was finished, he said, "sweet!". So that's what I named it. When I was putting it together, the clean feel of it made me think of the color blue, for no particular reason. I found this old painting that my oldest son, Caleb, painted a few years ago and it matches the color I was thinking of.
I hope that you can use this music!

Theme from Mozart's Sonata in C

I couldn't help myself.  After listening to this piece over and over as our youngest begs for yet another repetition of his Baby Einstein Dvd, I finally broke down one evening and made the piece my own.

Yes.. it's the same piece.. well, at least part of the same melody.  And if you're a purist, please forgive me.. This is how I hear this beautiful work inside my head. I hope it blesses you as much as the original.

Drifting Part Three

Here is the third and final "Drifting piece".  I love this painting of the paper crane by Ariel Deandrea.  Of course, (I'm a bit biased, since she is my cousin.)

As always, this music is very spiritual for me.  I hope it is the same for you.

God bless.

Cloud Planet

    Any chord that can be decomposed into a series of Perfect or augmented fourths is called a Quartal chord.  To me, they've always sounded elusive and otherworldly.. probably because we hear them used in music used to orchestrate the Star Trek Series.
    I was goofing around with a G quartal chord.. and it made me think of orbiting a beautiful cloud planet.. dipping my toes into the exosphere.. marveling at God's creation..

Take a moment and listen.. do you see it..?
