\"\"Original Music<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first creative act I remember doing was writing a song, I was four. It was a song about the changing seasons. At the time we still hadn’t learnt about autumn and spring, so the song, only had winter and summer in it.<\/p>\n

When the days are short and the nights are long<\/p>\n

that’s when winter is near<\/p>\n

When the snow falls down and the birds fly away<\/p>\n

that’s when winter is near<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When the days are long and the nights are short<\/p>\n

that’s when summer is near<\/p>\n

When the birds come back and the snow melts away<\/p>\n

that’s when summer is near<\/p>\n

I remember devising at the time a system for remembering notes by using little lines one to remember the height of a note.<\/p>\n

It took me many long years until I really mastered clefs and keys and notation. I still use the line system as a cantor, when I write little reminders in the prayer book above and within the text to jog my memory.<\/p>\n

Since, I have composed many songs, woven words into melody and melody into words. My need for singing is primordial. I cannot imagine composing a piece that is not ultimately created for my voice. I create songs as if they were dresses to wear. They have to be beautiful, comfortable interesting and allow freedom of movement. They are tailor fit to my voice. These are my gifts to myself, though some have found their way into congregations and anthologies, which of course is an endless source of joy.<\/p>\n
