Sideways Blues - Whimsically Macabre
This "blues" is based on an unusual 8-note scale containing these notes: E-F-G-A#-B-C-C#-D-E, so although it has a 12-bar structure, the chords are a bit strange.

Jump in the River - 2019 Tiny Desk Contest - Stacy Fahrion
Jump in the River is an etude featuring 4 against 5 polyrhythms. It begins and ends in Eb Lydian, and is in C minor in between. The title is a phrase I heard recently. It was mentioned in reference to imagining the music is already flowing and you're just joining in, in order to start at the correct tempo. To me, the idea of jumping into flowing waters is a beautiful and multilayered metaphor that applies to overcoming fear and anxiety and not holding yourself back from doing the things you long to do, even if those things scare you. Like entering the Tiny Desk Contest.
Impermanence - Whimsically Macabre
“The one close to me now,
even my own body-
these too
will soon become clouds,
floating in different directions.”

The Lovelorn Lobster with Rachael Teixeira and Whimsically Macabre
So excited to post this collaboration with the fabulous Rachael Teixeira! Find out more about Rachael here: https://www.rachaelteixeira.com/
The Lovelorn Lobster is a song from 1897 with lyrics by Joseph W. Herbert. I wrote original music to his poignant lyrics about love between a lobster and a piscatorial maiden going terribly awry. A timeless, classic song for Valentine’s Day, or any occasion.
Composed by Stacy Fahrion, and performed by Rachael Teixeira, vocals, and Stacy Fahrion, piano.
Beautiful Dreamer- Whimsically Macabre version
This piece starts out mostly normal, staying close to Stephen Foster's piece, but then something goes awry and it ends up in the parallel minor.
