I am still blown away by the amazing performance of "Greed Over Guilt" - thank you again to INMF (@inmffestival ) and the Brightwork Ensemble (@brghtwrk ). This piece would not have evolved the way it did without the help of the faculty and the dedication of the ensemble.

My wife is one of the strongest people I know, having dealt with more than anyone should as an ICU nurse and a human being. Seeing how most hospitals have responded to their nursing staff's burn out rate has been downright embarrassing to humanity. And I've been astonished how little the public is aware.

So I do hope this piece sheds some light. Thank you to all the nurses out there - without you, we wouldn't have a functioning healthcare system.

<< To my composer friends: I've made the ICU machine beeps available to download! You can download all 11 warning sounds for your own use, knowing these are accurate and verified sounds from the ICU - scroll to the bottom of the same performance page on my website to download. >>

This is the first illustration I did for "Greed Over Guilt," the nurse piece I'll be releasing on my YouTube channel this Friday!

There's a lot of symbolism tied into this one, so I'm curious how this is seen by others...

"Go, Lovely Rose". Excited to share this recent collab with @thepianorist!

"Go, Lovely Rose" 🌹🥀
- music by Roger Quilter
- text by Edmund Waller

The poem was published in 1645 while the music was written/published in 1923. And the popular tone world of the "Roaring Twenties" (jazz, swing, etc.) can be heard right at the start with the piano introduction.🎹🤘

Such a lovely piece to learn/perform, with it's lush harmonies, mixed meters, and old English. Singing along to such musical accompaniment is such a treat, too, thanks to the talented and musical @thepianorist. And they always find such amazing pieces to perform!

Roger Quilter is a favorite composer of mine and while I've heard this piece, I've not had the opportunity to study it! So a big "thank you!!" goes out to my collab partner 🙏🙏🙏

TEXT:
"Go, lovely rose!
Tell her that wastes her time and me,
That now she knows,
When I resemble her to thee,
How sweet and fair she seems to be.

Tell her that’s young,
And shuns to have her graces spied,
That hadst thou sprung
In deserts, where no men abide,
Thou must have uncommended died.

Small is the worth
Of beauty from the light retired;
Bid her come forth,
Suffer herself to be desired,
And not blush so to be admired.

Then die! that she
The common fate of all things rare
May read in thee;
How small a part of time they share
That are so wondrous sweet and fair!"
_________

I love having many creative projects and hope you consider supporting my efforts on Ko-fi (link in bio) with a coffee! ☕ 🙏 Thank you!

"Sorted Tree" - no matter how digitized a photo can get, having a natural color pallette seems to keep the warmth and mood.

Wonder what the music equivalent of this would be -

Full performance to be released on my YouTube channel next Friday, Sept. 17th.

But until then, here's a teaser of Brightwork's (@brghtwrk) outstanding performance of "Greed Over Guilt" from last weekend during the Impulse New Music Festival (@INMFfestival).

This performance gave me chills... it was such a humbling experience for these performers to invest and commit so genuinely into this project, about a subject matter so close to my heart. Thank you to all that helped make this happen, but most of all a huge thank you to the nurses, the true backbone of our Healthcare system.

Nurses deserve a chance to be understood and I believe this performance helps provide a very clear representation of the complex feelings they endure on a daily basis.

Very excited to share this piece with all of you. Just need a bit more time to prepare the release!

Stay tuned 🎶🔥🤘
