through a day

my days are defined by many people and many experiences. this tracks a days points through the music or spoken word i was attending to - or which was attending to me !!

the cinematic orchestra - dawn



what was said to the rose - written by rumi - spoken by coleman barks



chick corea "crystal silence" - a song i listened to before falling asleep many times in high school . . . .



brian eno "by this river" - a languid, melancholy, rainy-day, afternoon song . . .



the beatles "a day in the life" . . . i always loved the orchestral wind-up in this song. it offered a glimpse of something i couldn't articulate at the time but i see it as a sort of potential - a possibility - that goes well beyond the players . . . it's describing an otherness . . .


brian eno - "an ending (ascent)" . . . i love kind music before i sleep. "kind" for me is a sensation of care, that quality that accompanies moments of purposeful nurturing.
