Wash the Day Away #Meditation #HighSpiritsFlutes #Poem

Posted on by

Refrain:
Let the night enfold you.
Wash the day away.
Let the moonlight console you.
Wash the day away.

1. When you do not belong
And your weakness is strong;
When you feel like everything’s wrong,
Wash the day away.
Wash the day away.
Refrain

2. When the day lasts for years,
Bringing heartache and tears;
When the bad is all that appears,
Wash the day away.
Wash the day away.
Refrain:

3. When the pain takes control,
And it burns in your soul;
When you fear you can’t be bold,
Wash the day away.
Wash the day away.

Another remix,
“Dusk”
was written in July. Again, I played the original on alto recorder, but wrote it with Native-American style flutes in mind.

Today, enjoy “Dusk” on 432HZ Spirit Flutes, the mid A minor and the bass in E minor, made by High Spirits. You’ll hear ukulele and chimes as well: Koshi Aria/Air, Koshi Ignis/Fire, and Zaphir Twilight/Autumn.

I wrote and posted “Network of Stars”
here
in July. It was played on double strung harp and alto recorder. However, I wrote the piece for Native-American style flutes in the minor pentatonic scale. So, today I play it on ukulele and 432HZ flutes from High Spirits. You’ll hear first the A minor flute, then the bass in E minor. Enjoy the Koshi Aria/Air, Koshi Ignis/Fire, and Zaphir Twilight/Autumn chimes as well!

“The Last Rose of Summer” #Music

“The Last Rose of Summer” is set to a traditional Irish tune called “Aisling an Óigfhear”, or “The Young Man’s Dream.” The poem was written by Thomas Moore in 1805.

Here is this beautiful melody played on zither, lyre with Oriole (soprano) Recorder, and double strung harp. It also includes Ocean Drum to evoke the Irish coast.

I hope you enjoy “The Last Rose of Summer!”

“Maitland” was written by American composer George Nelson Allen and was first published in 1835. It is his best known melody and serves as the musical setting for several hymns, including “Must Jesus Bear the Cross Alone?” and was adapted by Thomas A. Dorsey for the hymn, “Precious Lord, Take My Hand.”

I hope you enjoy this beautiful melody played on double strung harp!

Fresh Air #Flute #Improv #Poem

Posted on by

Fresh, green Air and yellow Fire
Combining to fulfill desire!

Let the Air take pain away,
Replaced with Fire’s gentle rays.

Take a breath and be transformed
To more than you have been before!

Within your belly Fire’s flame
Is burning for your special aim.

The Air that keeps your thoughts inspired
Is fanning flames of true desire.

O let the Fire and Air renew
The purpose Spirit has for you!

Become transformed and stay inspired
In harmony with Air and Fire!

“Bringing in the Sheaves” #Music

Download “Bringing in the Sheaves” Mp3

Knowles Shaw wrote this hymn in 1874. The text is based on Psalm 126:6, which reads: “He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” It’s considered an American Gospel song and Protestant Christian hymn. Although Shaw did compose music for his lyrics, the hymn is most often sung to the tune played here, composed by George Minor in 1880.

Today I play Oriole (soprano) Recorder accompanied by ukulele, then solos on zither, lyre, and double strung harp. These solo instruments are all stringed instruments with a very similar range. However, you can hear that they have very different sounds, and the double strung harp can play lovely effects and arrangements that the zither and lyre cannot.

I hope you enjoy “Bringing in the Sheaves!”
