It has been a pleasure hearing these songs throughout the year. Cycles following time, (seasons, months, or periods of the day), as you seem to suggest, can be a protection from the selfish,and cruel, aspects of humanity that dominate our times. There are lieder, diatonic preludes, tone rows, and ragas that have their places within compositional cycles or even daily domestic routines, and your songs have likewise reached for and shared a much needed refuge of stillness!

Kind words. I’m pleased that you listened, and understood.
