A retro rhapsodic tribute to 77 wasted lives. I watched a T.V. report showing how this murderer is being given 5 star treatment and ‘human rights’ in the ‘prison’ prior to his trial. I wrote this music the same day (14th April 2012) There is no real anger in the music, (I don’t really do musical anger) but there is passion, sadness and frustration… but then it does contain joy in the hope of eternal justice and resurrection. This music does not in any way reflect the diabolical scenes on that day. (Mel Stallwood)

Eric Satie

Here’s a little tune that I’m not totally satie’s-fied with. It is a perfectly lamentable effort entitled ‘Paul’s Lament’. On Satie-day, after reading the new page dedicated to Eric Satie, Paul through out the challenge to write a Gymnopedie on the spot (or even a Gnossienne), so here is the attempt. It took a few minutes to get the the tune and about four hours to muck around with the embellishments before the element of Saties-faction arrived. It may be a while before it is totally Satie’s-factory…
