You know I’m writing Music. And you know that I write books. And you’ve already been familiar with the thought that there is a close relation of both areas according to the way I do express and I do feel. They belong together and in this case, book and album are very interesting.
This episode takes the first song of the new album to enter in this mellow space of writing - and reading.

This is another one of my short stories - one more example of my writing. I hope you’ll enjoy it. It's taken from the book "Cut Flowers" published in 2017.
But now, let’s go to the setting of the story: A balcony in an old part of a medium sized city and a couple of friends who have met there.

There are so many things we dream about - and in dreams we all are free.
We are as free as we can be and we have wings to fly wherever we want to go to in an instant. Nobody is able to steal your dreams away and theres is no one who has the right to do so.
This song is dealing with the mellow space of dreams, reflected by the harsh winds of reality. Can these two ways pair or go along as one - right next to each other and without being irritated by each other? Can you tell?

I've always tried to combine the classical orchestra with the songwriting I am looking for to a really high degree.
But I've always wanted an orchestra that has things to say, not just to accompany, you know. You can do wonderful things while orchestrating the music and end up in a dialog with the songwriter an its song.
That is what I am looking for and this is what I intended while recording this very song from my current album.
This episode is about the song "It All Did Change" taken from the 2021 album "Watershed".
