This next part is copy and pasted from my blog: My inspiration for The pianist's Wind Chimes came mainly from Philip Glass. The Philip Glass Etudes are kind of short, but I've been listening to them recently. They are somewhat profound even though they are brief and not that advanced. Of course a piece does not have to be long or hard to be profound. The Minimalist style is a great way for beginner and intermediate piano students to sound excellent at piano recitals. I usually don't think about the title of a piece first. The title came to me as I was working on it. Funnily enough, the title might be the worst part of this piece. I only used the name The Pianist's Wind Chimes because I thought it was a cool name (ha ha ha!). In the middle of The Pianist's Wind Chimes, there is a reference to Beethoven's Fur Elise. The famous first two measures of Fur Elise were part of my inspiration. The notes are sort of different. I didn't want to copy Fur Elise completely. But I did want to make the reference obvious enough. I do wander how many people will recognize the reference. I hope most of them will.

The Pianist's Wind Chimes is a great original composition for piano students after their first year. It's in 5/8 time, which is not too common for students of this caliber to encounter. Except for a few measures in the middle of the piece, the meter never changes.
This piece is also three pages long. That makes it somewhat longer than a typical beginner composition. Since it's a full three pages, The Pianist's Wind Chimes is great to perform at a student recital. You can listen to the YouTube video to find out how long it is. The video is a little over two minutes and thirty seconds long. 
I only decided on the name The Pianist's Wind Chimes because I thought it would be a cool name (ha ha!). .

Light jazz vocal arrangement in the style of Ella Fitzgerald, Bing Crosby or Nat King Cole of a new original Christmas tune by deCosta & Lane.

A day like any other day,
A dismal one, I want to say.
A day when joy seems to have flown away.
Is misery to be my dole?
But what now do I hear within my soul?

They sing to me in lovely tones,
I feel it in my flesh and bones,
No longer will we be alone.
Gone the void so dark and vast.
Emmanuel is come at last.

CHORUS
I hear the chimes so many times,
They ring out loud, so clear in my ears.
But they don’t sound In just my ears,
But deep in the hearts of all gathered here.

And as the chimes so sweetly ring,
Let us all rejoice and sing,
And hearken to the hope they bring.

We wonder what that may allow,
If our savior’s with us now.
We’ll know Him, someday
We’ll know Him somehow.

[CHORUS]
