The crocuses and the daffodils are peeking up in the garden. Spring, the long slow, uncertain, beautiful spring here in the NW is getting going. After having been primarily a string instrument addict I have taken to writing a lot on the piano. A lot of sad, beautiful love songs. After years and years of never singing in falsetto I have taken to using my falsetto a lot with this new batch of songs. When I was young I was a boy soprano. The kid who sang all the solo's in his 5th grade class play. Gilbert and Sullivan's "The Mikado". It feels like returning home after a long, long absence to be singing this way. Typically most singers complains of losing high notes in their voice as the get older but I'm singing higher now, not only in falsetto, but in my regular voice than I ever have before. It was always the need to turn pain into beauty that drove me towards music. It is the place where things get expressed that I could find no other way of dealing with. Music has literally, once again, saved my life. I hope that the new music is as compelling to you, as it is to me. I hope to have some of it out in the world shortly.]]> http://johntwist.net/news.html#5 Thu, 03 Mar 2011 00:00:00 -0800 Musician & Weaver of 12 String Wonders - Portland, Oregon - John Twist - News http://johntwist.net/news.html#4 http://johntwist.net/news.html#4 Fri, 02 Oct 2009 00:00:00 -0700 Musician & Weaver of 12 String Wonders - Portland, Oregon - John Twist - News http://johntwist.net/news.html#3
Anne made the song her own. Turning it into a anthemic blues show stopper.
