Amongst the Angels . . .


Photo by Zoltán Túri

*****************************************************


Long ago, well, maybe only about seven years ago . . . I was looking for music to play in my classroom . . . mellow music, but not sleepy stuff  (and free because I'm a poor teacher) .. . . Somehow I stumbled over this album (below) on an Internet site being used as an attention draw to a game, an advertising ploy  . . . 

I was mesmerized by the music and traced the album back to Jamendo . . . And there I discovered a treasure trove of music . .  endless music . . lots of really good stuff and lots of really bad stuff. I made friends there . ..  got involved, and good or bad . . . stayed in love with Jamendo . . . not because of the site, so much, as the music . . . like crystal spring water keeps pouring into a deep well and filling a bucket to quench a raw thirst, new music compositions always appear.  

These sounds are alternative discourses, creatively delved from an artistic source, deep in the human psyche . . . put together, like any art, as a way to express the soul's utterances.  .  . the sound of music  is the energy of the heavens . . . given to us as a balm to soothe the scar of the human condition.

I wish I could make music . . . I am not so gifted; yet I can enjoy good music and appreciate the artists' gifts to us . . . and the music does something to my heart . ..  because I believe that I have been set down amongst the angels . . . and the melody of the angels is divine.









*****************************************************

Here-in awaits the life of a piano . . . great pieces, inspired and inspiring . .. improvisational and artistic . . .  lots and lots of piano music to feed your muse, your dreams and visions. . . from the dramatic to the sublime . . . from celestial to . . . interesting . . . something for every taste.





****************************************************


And what do you know . . . more piano music. . .
and acoustic guitar. . . synthesizer . . . electric! 
These tunes are especially lovely . . . 
Listening makes me feel as if I were relaxing 
by the side of an isolated lake . . the breezes, cool and refreshing . . .
the water ripples, sparkles, and flashes silver and gold beneath a charming sun 
and the purple mountains in the distance
wait breathlessly as the music plays . . 
My heart is mesmerized by the melodies 
and the lights of the lake dance in my soul  .  . 
and even the birds in the trees quietly absorb the music







*****************************************************

So . .  let's kick it up a notch . . . electronic stuff, unique sounds, percussive adventures to dance by . . . energetic sounds to get you moving . ..  smiling . . .  beats that
won't let you down . .  go for it . . . 





****************************************************

Some magic, here, that flows through the ether . . . filling my
environment with soft sound . . . like clouds in space . . . and rich percussion, 
where stars do grace the hands of the gods as they reach towards the
listener. . . caressing the listener's heart and deploying peace . . . as
we float through space . . . dark mysteries . . . tranquil visions . . .






****************************************************


Uplifting and joyful progressive rock . . . or deeply dramatic
melancholic depths with strings that whirled and dreams that wandered . . .
 . . .  I felt there was a story here . . . something
to divert us from the everyday  . . . perhaps help us understand the pathway
before us . . . a marvelous electric guitar. . . becomes
an impressive guide down this road . .   This is a surprisingly
good album . . .  let it's voice speak for itself . . . and listen . . .
