Good timezone fediverse,
Today's song is Childhood by Mohamed Murbati

Mohamed Murbati (Arabic: محمد المرباطي) is a Bahraini musician born in 1995.
He's composed music for short films and some Bahraini plays as well as for numerous poems written by Bahraini and some by Arab poets. His biggest collaboration was with the Bahraini singer Huda Abdulla. His debut album "Winter Stories" was released in 2017

I love his melodic works

Continued thread

I just happened to think about it after not accessing it for a while. In 2020 I went through a phase of trying to learn material from it, although I'm not at a level to play most of it. This one was one of my faves, arrangements of Jewish (and other) folk melodies into simple modern pieces. no.8, based on a nigun, is so mysterious, no.11 is actually a Crimean Tatar melody that was popular among klezmers, and no.13 is a nice arrangement of Kol Nidre.

For musicians who are interested in both art music and Jewish music, check out this online archive of old scores connected with the St. Petersburg Society for Jewish Folk Music (Общество еврейской народной музыки, which only existed c.1908-19). It contains scores by Engel, Gnessin, Stutschewsky, Saminsky, and others of that late imperial clique who sought to incorporate Jewish musical themes into modern art music. Great and rare stuff!

40 days and 40 nights of uninterrupted streams! For the last 40 days, I've got at least one stream (from a visitor; streams from people who own it are counted separate) at my Bandcamp site.

I know for even moderately popular artists, that's a meaningless achievement, but for a completely independent, self-funded, one-man operation, working in such an esoteric musical vein, it's a big deal. Thank you all so much!

Had a possibly fun idea for an art exercise!

This is a track called Rising Winds by Mid-Air Machine, from the album At Arm's Length - freemusicarchive.org/music/Ask

Take a long canvas, start at one end, and draw/paint your interpretation of the music as the track progresses. It's a 2m40s track so it's a quick-ish exercise. Don't think about it too much, just paint what you feel.

Tag with #ArtMusic then everyone can compare what they did :D

Ça peut sembler un peu nerd comme vidéo mais ça illustre quand même un point essentiel : les mots sont importants ! (et c'est même assez politique, au fond).

1/5 d'h pour comprendre l'importance des dénominations en science, avec un exemple surprenant : la dénomination des genres en musique, et plus spécifiquement le terme "Art Music"
