Morning Fishing

I enjoy angling, and there is nothing better than waking one spring morning, the rain has stopped, the sun is rising, mist is over the lake, and the rain is dripping off the leaves into the lake. I stretch, take in the scene, and then the bite alarm sounds, a carp has fallen for the trap! The fight is on. I almost bring in the carp, it lunges away again. But finally, I win the fight, I net the magnificent creature. This piece was written as part of the suite for my own birthday. It is dedicated to our son, my angling companion of many years. Please listen, enjoy, download, and record your own version. This piece was recorded by the wonderful Nadia Weintraub.

Lords Prayer

This piece was first written for the baptism of our son, Samuel, by my good friend, Jerry Lewis. A few years later I took this wonderful piece and arranged it for four voices and piano. Some lovely friends in Nigeria went into the studio and recorded it live. Please listen, enjoy, and try this with your own choir.

My Lover

When I was 60 years of age, for my birthday celebration, I composed a piece of music for each of my immediate family. I then came across the amazing pianist, Nadia Weintraub. She recorded a few of these pieces, including this piece. This was composed for my wife, Helen. It is about our journey. Please listen, enjoy, and download the score and please, let me have your recording. (Please note copyright applies to any commercial performances and recordings. Please contact me for details and permissions.) I look forward to hearing your version.

Will You Remember Me?

I am more of a classical composer, but I penned these lyrics to reflect the book and all of the themes within it. I sometimes wonder, will i be missed when I am gone. I vacillate, and sometimes believe that the world will be better off without me (just as my brother did about himself), but I fight back, daily. My wife also had an olive tree. It died. I purchased a new one, and in this song I ask the poignant question, "when the tree bears an olive, will you remember me?" Once I had written the lyrics, and penned some musical ideas, chords etc... I turned to AI to be my assistant. I also used this tool to create the musicians and the voices. please don't hate me for it, LOL! Please, listen, and enjoy.

Holding Back Time

This is a song that is dedicated to my ever loving wife, Helen. None of us, even kings, can hold back time. It comes and goes, like a flash. Helen and I have been married for more than 40 years, that is two score years. This is about our journey, through minor bouts of cancer, into later life, hearing impairment, frailty, grief, and joy. Please note, I penned all of these lyrics myself, but I am more of a classical composer. I then used AI as an assistive tool to complete the padding out of my noted musical ideas and concept and to add the musicians and voices. Don't hate me for it, LOL. As always copyright rules apply. Please listen, and enjoy.
