110528 “sad carl”

with sound Posted on 2011-05-29 14:54:52

this evening i played a gig at a wedding held at millesgården just outside stockholm. carl milles (1875-1955) was a famous and successful sculptor who, together with his wife olga, created this beautiful spot, these days open to the public. i saw a lot of photographs of him but not a single one where he´s smiling. it made me wonder.

110516 “echo”

silentium Posted on 2011-05-17 00:24:33

“Sweet Echo, sweetest nymph, that liv’st unseen
Within thy aery shell
By slow Meander’s margent green,
And in the violet-embroidered vale,
Where the love-lorn nightingale
Nightly to thee her sad song mourneth well;
Canst thou not tell me of a gentle pair
That likest thy Narcissus are?
O, if thou have
Hid them in some flowery cave,
Tell me but where,
Sweet queen of parly, daughter of the sphere,
So may’st thou be translated to the skies,
And give resounding grace to all heaven’s harmonies.”

john milton
