Name: The Wayfarers: Ellen
Duration: P00H02M17S
Description: Ellen has always had one of the most amazingly happy smiles I've seen, capable of relieving any trouble. They should prescribe it at chemists. As she was a good soprano, I saw her piece as an opportunity to focus on the women by splitting them into 4 parts. The song reflects her cheery, vivacious personality. I knew she loved body percussion, so I added some of that as well.

lyrics

Graceful she moves, she takes my hand
Her radiance shines
And when she smiles, my troubles wash away like rain
Graceful she moves, she takes my hand
Her radiant smile brings peace and joy
And troubles wash away like rain, like rain

Gawain Davey Melbourne, Australia

Music to appreciate and savour.
A slower, softer sound spectrum... quirky, thoughtful words... restless melodies on a lush bed of changing harmony...
Darkness and light mingle.
Gawain writes classical music and contemporary songs. ... more
