This is an enigmatic and rhapsodic piece for solo piano that is composed in Whole Tone C mode and is based on the Book of Revelation Chapter 8 Verses 1-5 in the New Testament Bible. 
Bar 1-18 is based on verses 1-3 and is sharp, spacey and minimal - the sound of silence and of the angels. The emphasis is the sound between the notes.
Verse 4 states: 'And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the Saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.' This section changes tone and phrase. There is a beautiful ascending up the keyboard, which is delecate but with hesitance. It is the light before the darkness; the potential energy before the explosion; the calm before the storm. There must be tension.
Verse 5 states: 'And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar and cast it into the Earth, and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.'
This section therefore is rather more dramatic, with a contrast of high and low pitched notes and chords. 
The final bars of the piece are suspension - sharp and repetative chords and ending on one sharp note - what happens next?

The pianist should pedal freely throughout the piece and add their own dramatic touch to this very illistrative score.

This has always been a very visual arrangement for me with a rough narrative. It starts with the trumpets at the end of the world, the sense of quiet expectation. Wind across a field. It drops off into the silence of outer space. The initial theme presented against that impersonal void, knowing that He's out there, somewhere. Some of this is very difficult for me to describe because this is really about the Triune God, the great creative power, the mover in harmony and cooperation with Himself. The second verse is more grand, the love, the sense of story. And then it gets very, very big, in the way that I AM is always in capitals. Who WAS and IS and evermore shall BE! And in my mind that word BE is light, and just explodes against the blackness into a billion sparkles. And we shrink down to the microcosm for a moment, the wonders of His creative power in the tiny worlds, and it fades to the black of space again. Holy, Holy, Holy, though the darkness hide Thee. The Light that we can't see that would outshine all the stars. More beauty, and then we tumble down the waterfall of Living Water from the Throne of God...in Heaven. The golden palaces and the wonder, the unearthliness, the richness of the life. For a moment it's more simple and I'm reminded of an old hymn being sung in a rustic church. Then a vision of the Cosmic Christ from Revelation giving a benediction, and we're plunged into the chorus of Heaven, the new song of the 144,000. (this part sounds really good on an acoustic piano because the sound physically builds on itself) And it ends as it began...

Composed by Rocco Di Pietro. 21st Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary. Score. 14 pages. Rocco Di Pietro #881617. Published by Rocco Di Pietro (A0.1290932).

“The emotion it seems roused in children when they are left alone in the dark
is not dread, but desire. An overwhelming and fearful longing for the one who
can bring them solace for an apparent loss of self in the absence of the visible world.
The light becomes both a beacon and a being, a summons and a response, illuminating
the darkness that is a prelude to sleep, which is next door to the next world.�
~ J. Lord ~

The child’s journey starts in a toxic playground at home.

The child experiences his first loss, and goes into inner flight.

The actual awaited long journey of the child begins. A very curious story
indeed.

At last, the child arrives with his dream of hospitality among strange lands

As night falls, we find ourselves in a dense forest with an eerie glow: we quickly realize that we have the misfortune of having wandered into the Goblin Woods, and that soon the goblins will be passing by on their way to conduct their nightly mischief. We find a spot to hide and cover ourselves with leaves and branches. We try to be silent, but our hearts pound and a mere minute seems to last forever. And then, just as we are convinced that we have been caught and are trembling in fear… they disappear into the darkness.

Composed by Kenneth Baird. Blues,Jazz,Pop. Score. 4 pages. Kenneth Baird Music #700970. Published by Kenneth Baird Music (A0.1097088).

The Hopeful Blues - by Kenneth Baird - for solo piano. Written in an authentic traditional jazz style, but no improvisation required. A joyful jazzy melody that works well at various tempos, but is most joyful when played about 160 = quarter note. The written-out improvisation section has the most technically advanced moments. In difficulty, this falls somewhere between advanced-intermediate and the lower end of advanced. Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness. (Desmond Tutu) May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. (Romans 15:13).

The last verse of Edna St. Vincent Millay's Dirge without Music resonated with me: Down, down, down into the darkness of the grave Gently they go, the beautiful, the tender, the kind; Quietly they go, the intelligent, the witty, the brave. I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned..
