Introducing "Light"
"Light", track seven on the album, has one of my favourite string arrangements I've ever written. While rehearsing it with the string players before going into the studio, I remember swaying at the piano and seeing Maria on violin out of the corner of my eye going "woooo" like she was in a park on a swing. Yeah, it's swinging and swinging in all senses. It's my first ever attempt at a jazz ballad and while I am in no way, shape or form a jazzer in the traditional sense, I think the experiment was a success! Thanks to all the musicians playing, of course.
Another favourite thing is the singing saw floating on top of all the other instruments like a spectre. Do you know what it sounds like? There's a clip on my soundcloud.com/zazuka
Maybe you can catch the singing saw there.
