50 years from first man on Moon

I watched yesterday 1 and half hours of the first Moon landing 50 years ago, but then got tired. Anyway, in the beginning there was an impression of beings in Moon. Today I could not resist the temptation to try to compose something of it: apositive impression but lots of dust, kind of round, moving in Moon's way.

Summer time

I composed a short piece on a summer theme, but my apartment is on the sunside so these are not typical of the Finnish summer. Of summer advices you can read at http://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html .
It is now over three weeks since my 11 and half years old Japanese spitz died and I feel that the mourning time has been over for a while already.


And another piece:
See for text my text about the seasons.

4.2.2020   Now it is winter, but some days ago I figured out how to compose summer pieces in the summer time: instead of trying to compose everything,I ought to pick some theme, some single subject like flowers by the roadside, and compose just it and different versions around it. Then later ne maybe might learn to compose something on a wider subject, but I am not so sure of it since places are different, so can ne find from one's expereince of the summer something so common and so commonly liked, fascinating. But on smaller subjects one can.
I have been thinking of moving to another apartment. Then I maybe could compose something to the Finnish summer. This apartment that I now have lived in for some years is hot in the summer time, but I have quite much learned to live with it, but it is not so typical, but it could maybe better suit if I would try to compose summer pieces for more southern countries. I do not know if such succeeds, but it sounds like it could.

The Finnish nature of course stays the same regardless of in what kind of apartment I live in. But I could also try to compose about the Finnish nature on a hot day. The fresh sound of the Finnish nature is especially for cool cloudy, even rainy days, while the kind of flowering emotional touch is for the warm days, for their warm times, kind of comforting. I guess that one hot days too the nature has both sounds, tells of both kinds of weathers.

I have written lots of advices about feeling better in the summer time, thinking of warmer climates too, see https://finnishskills.blogspot.com/2014/11/living-with-seasons.html . In the summer people usually do not have the energy to read, but one might read it through now that it is cooler. I guess that they would listen to music, but I do not know beforehand what kind of music I would manage to make. Anyway, the text would be useful, since I compose mostly atmospheres and the like.

If you like the weathers and nature in your own country, maybe you would like to learn to compose music by yourself. Please read in the same text, on the above link, in the beginning of the May part a text about singing spring. It teaches how to transfor a fascinating atmosphere into a melody.
