David Warin Solomons #985851. Published by David Warin Solomons (A0.1402627). This song is based on parts of the poem by Paul Valéry Fragments du Narcisse which explains and ponders the idea of the origin of narcissism (self-love)The words are as followsMais moi, Narcisse aimé, je ne suis curieuxQue de ma seule essence ;Tout autre n’a pour moi qu’un cœur mystérieux,Tout autre n’est qu’absence.Ô mon bien souverain, cher corps, je n’ai que toi !Le plus beau des mortels ne peut chérir que soi...  Douce et dorée, est-il une idole plus sainte,De toute une forêt qui se consume, ceinte,Et sise dans l’azur vivant par tant d’oiseaux ?Est-il don plus divin de la faveur des eaux,Et d’un jour qui se meurt plus adorable usageQue de rendre à mes yeux l’honneur de mon visage ?Quitte enfin le silence, ose enfin me répondre,Bel et cruel Narcisse, inaccessible enfant,Tout orné de mes biens que la nymphe défend...Formons, toi sur ma lèvre, et moi, dans mon silence,Une prière aux dieux qu’émus de tant d’amourSur sa pente de pourpre ils arrêtent le jour !...Dieux ! de l’auguste jour, le pâle et tendre resteVa des jours consumés joindre le sort funeste ;Il s’abîme aux enfers du profond souvenir !Hélas ! corps misérable, il est temps de s’unir...Penche-toi... Baise-toi. Tremble de tout ton être !L’insaisissable amour que tu me vins promettrePasse, et dans un frisson, brise Narcisse, et fuit..English translation by D W SolomonsBut I, beloved Narcissus, am curious onlyabout my very beingeverything else has nothing more than a heart of mysteryeverything else is nothing but absenceOnly what I own, my dear sovereign body, is what I haveThe most beautiful of mortals cannot cherish anything more than itselfSweet and golden, is there a more holy idolwithin an entire forest, self-consumed and heldand set in the living azure by so many birds?Is there a more divine gift than the favour of the watersand a more adorable use of the dying daythan to return to me the honour of my face?Please don't be silent, please dare to replyBeautiful and cruel Narcissus, unreachable child owning what I hold dear but guarded by the nymphLet the two of us, you on my lips and I in my silencemake a prayer to the gods that they should be moved by so much lovethat they would keep the day held in its purple sunsetGods! only the pale and tender parts remain of the august day,It joins the fate of other days that were consumedIt goes down into the hell of deep memoryAlas, miserable body, it is time to become as oneBend down - kiss yourself - tremble with all your beingThe intangible love that you promisedhas gone by, and in a shiver, shatters Narcissus and flees.

She joined the choir ... and the two of them married quite soon afterwards! Things sometimes move quickly in London city churches!  I wrote this epithalamium for them and sang it at their wedding.You may hear the flutter of tiny wings and it's not the white-eyed angel above the organ. watch my wings flutter It's not the angelic soprano in the days of her youth and it's not the big burly bass and it's not the gloria in excelsis Rector 'Cos ev'ry body knows that Cupid sings alto Watch my wings flutter Now this Cupid brought a soprano in and he introduced her for an audition watch her heart flutter! She sang very sweetly and purely in the days of her youth and found favour with the maestro and the gloria in excelsis Rector said Well I never knew that Cupid sang alto. Watch his wings flutter!You may hear the flutter of tiny wings tiny wings tiny wings...

Paul Addison #726936. Published by Paul Addison (A0.1126233). Seeds Along the Way is a musical about the life of the biblical King David, written by Paul Addison. David gets to see the major events of his life with the help of his guardian angel, Gabrielle. This manner of storytelling combines elements of It’s a Wonderful Life, A Christmas Carol, and the old TV show This Is Your Life. Each event in David’s life is told through a song. It was originally written as a VBS (Vacation Bible School) musical. Although everyone in Israel is singing his praises, David questions the purpose of his life. Gabrielle shows him that everyone’s life is important, and that the good things that we do are like seeds planted along the way, which may not sprout and grow until much later. After reviewing his past, David is given a glimpse of the future, and realizes that he is one of many who are preparing for the coming of Jesus Christ. The musical is based on the stories from the Bible, mainly from 1 and 2 Samuel, but also including a Psalm and a geneaology listing from Matthew. David throws in a couple of bad puns as he tries to understand what Gabrielle is trying to tell him. The accompaniment is written for piano, but is appropriate for a praise team or a small dance band. The styles are quite varied, including cha-cha, pop, bossa nova, ballad, dirge, blues, jazz, and waltz. The piano accompaniment could be supplemented by percussion instruments (tambourine, maracas, woodblock, cowbell, etc.), as well as guitar, saxophone, and drums. The songs are at an Easy Intermediate level. The only stage requirements are a small balcony or elevated level with a railing or fence, and a floor area for the chorus. The musical consists of 10 scenes, but the two narrator characters remain on the balcony, and the floor area only needs to be changed in case the chorus members use different costumes and/or props for the different scenes. I hope you enjoy this musical. Address any questions to me at paulhaddison@gmail.com.

Alexander Bosrup Karlsen #5309529. Published by Alexander Bosrup Karlsen (A0.973934). GarbaGarba is a song I wrote inspired by the norwegian jazz-saxophonist Jan Garbarek. The song has a world music, european jazz-kinda feel. A flowing melody that will give the musicians opportunity to work on their phrasing, timing and dynamics. The melody itself is quite easy, and gives much room to the players. It's available for both alto and tenor, and a chord sheet. I will provide a separate backing track at some point that you can buy for a small sum extra. .
