Never Letting Go
After thoroughly enjoying the musical theatre play from our first year students tonight, I intended to sneak into the theatre and do my daily thingy, only to find out that everything had already been locked down and shut tight.
What to do?
I can’t leave you emptyhanded, so I present you with an oldy, with vocals.
In 2008 I collaborated with Daniel Cohen to write a musical about the Bijlmerdisaster of 1992, where an airoplane crashed into an appartmentbuilding in the suburbs of Amsterdam.
The play evolved around a gospelchoir who had their rehearsal space in that very building and the lives of the people surrounding them.
Todays piece is a recording of the finale of that show.
Lyrics by Daniel Cohen, music by moi.
Tomorrow more piano playing.
I did compose a couple of songs today for an event which takes place later this year in Bodegraven. I shall keep you posted on that part.
But for now, sit back and enjoy the heavenly choir.
Thank you for listening!

To celebrate one year of Daily Piano Pieces I have created four cd's for you to download.
Jazzy Red, High 'n White, Classic Green and Bluesy Blue
Enter your name and email below and I shall send you a link to the download page.
Happy times and happy listenings ;-)
