Jenkins, Dan - The Singing Minotaur

This is something of a story, to be told as the performer wants. All tempos are marked circa. The primitive aspect of the sound suggested the minotaur, the beast in the depths of his labyrinth. But also deep within this minotaur lies a longing, that wants to reach for the sun; he wants to sing. The rest of the story is in the music, tell it how you will. My only contribution here would be the moment of sweetness, of a glimpse of the light. At letter E the monster strives to find his major 3rd, but goes all around it and falls back. But then he reaches it, and from there soars with joy. For practical purposes, the Where can obviously be anywhere, the story tells itself with or without reverb. It's just enhanced when you find a church, a stairwell, or even a piano with its lid open… Dan Jenkins
