Hi all,
For this bossa, Patrick Fournerat has written lyrics and he sings.

https://soundcloud.com/christian-devienne/en-esperant-la-plenitude

Here's an approximate translation :

A hike at the other side of the world.
In the distance, snow-capped peaks.
On my wandering shoulders,
the backpack seems light.

Climbing in altitude,
hoping for fullness.

I followed the Sherpas
who guided my steps.
In the village up there,
it was not hot.
In the evening near the bivouac,
I gazed at the lake.
Dotted with fireflies,
who make antics.

Arrived at the top of the pass,
the eagles turn in the void.
And I watch their flight,
fearless acrobats!

Climbing in altitude,
hoping for fullness.

It seems the song starts out slowly without much life...
But as the song progresses it seems to become more interesting...
Another nice collaboration.

Nice bossa Chris.

Patrick did a good job with the vocals and the lyric. We really like the imagery. And the band.

It had Janice dancing around!

Nice.

As I've said before - these songs need to be heard live.
The guitar is a very cool nagging but essential element.
Well done.


Cheers

Thank you all for your comments.
Yes, Ray, the nylon guitar is nagging. It turns around A Major with bass changes. And that's this obsessional feeling I was looking for.

Nice work on this smile Love the bossa vibes on this, and the vocals did a great job on this. The deep voice pairs gorgeously with the lush instrumentation. It is really calming to listen to, I found.

Thanks for sharing!


Cheers,
Deryk

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
