"Home" is a song about peacefulness and #appreciation. Often, my youngest students didn't have a sense of its meaning. I loved having the opportunity to talk to children about appreciation for everything in their lives. youtu.be/OoZj1Y3PsyM

Next Ballads, Songs & Vignettes installment is: “Moonlight”. It's 'cycle of 3' is influenced by Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata", but other than that bears no resemblance to the Beethoven piece.

Here is the next installment from Ballads, Songs & Vignettes. The piece is called “Life Song”. I love this little piece and its uplifting nature. The message is pretty simple and clear: youtu.be/NyILcuZLwxA

Here's another Ballads, Songs & Vignettes installment (post no. 12). It's called “Lost”. This simple, little piece is a gentle nod to the sense of being lost (more so emotionally rather than physically): youtu.be/N1--Sybq6kQ

A follow-on from my prior post: excerpt from a fully orchestrated version of the same piece, "Can I Share My Heart?". A good representation of how arrangement and production can transform a simple but strong melody: youtu.be/lnrCBqSGc04
