Trombone…tenor sax
Notes flowing…flying
all around the rhythm of the drums…
Jazz proclaims supremacy
in celebration of a musical legacy…
The Newark Blues People Festival lives on.
A soloist accompanied by
harmonizing voices declares
the reason for the season.
the reason for the season.
Silent Night in the Blue Mirror
sings of heavenly peace…
A peace to release the mind
from stress and worry
from violence and from hate …
Contralto tones interweave
with chords falling between beats
crescendo-ing into a spiritual explosion
declaring amazing grace
in the blue mirror.
Voices curve in and out
accentuating spaces in the music…
The breathy sound of the flute softly enters
The breathy sound of the flute softly enters
whispering melodically of
hope
hope
The music rumbles
The music rolls
The drums explode …
A glissando sends sixteenth notes
cascading into the atmosphere
igniting spirits to take wing and soar…
lanterns lighting the way
in the blue mirror.
Abstract designs
reflect bass notes
walking through the mirror
in search of the one…
The beat that connects musical exploration
into a unifying
force
in search of
creation…
in search of a
peace to release the mind
from stress and worry
from stress and worry
from violence and from hate…
in search of a peace
that serenades unity in the family of man.
Has a nice jazz feel to it.
