Asha ~ Sacred heart

Asha (aka Asher Quinn & Asha Elijah) ~ 'Sacred heart' from "Open Secret." CD/download available here: www.ashaquinn.c...
This was the very first track on my very first album, back in 1987. I began writing proper songs and pieces in about 1979, but got 167 rejections from record companies and publishing companies over the next few years, before New World Music took my instrumental pieces on. After that I began to add vocals. "Open Secret" became very successful, and I stayed with New World until 2004, selling over a million albums. Since 2005 I've been independent.
As a child I loved the mournful Italian baroque composers like Vivaldi, Albinoni and Scarlatti. 'Sacred heart' was a kind of inverted adaptation of Pachelbel's Canon, but in a minor key.
I invited my young music student friends to play on it, back then... the violin by Ivor McGregor, cello by Jemma Siddel, flute by Cynthia Robertson, and oboe by Anthony Freer. There were no keyboard samples used! It was all 'live' in the studio of my friend and mentor Anthony Phillips, of Genesis.
Finally I've filmed for it... footages of sacred places in Budapest, a city I love with a passion.

Dzień dobry Asha. Jestem pod ogromnym wrażeniem obejrzanego filmiku. Wspaniale zrealizowany. Rewelacyjnie dobrane obrazy do linii melodycznej. Dostarczyłeś mi mnóstwo pozytywnych emocji. Bardzo dziękuję i serdecznie pozdrawiam.

[@hajnalsimon495]

Dear Asher ! The first day of 2015 the most incredible feeling I experienced this song. Heavenly song and my soul is flying to you. I am also very happy that there is someone who loves the Hungarians. All due respect to you.

[@AshaSongs]

I feel that my soul must be Hungarian! I'm in love with the Hungarian way, and feel very at home whenever I'm there. Hungary... the Christ of Europe! Somehow the living Christ is closer to the surface in the Hungarian situation... in the spiritual passion of the Hungarian folk, and in the struggles between protecting its sacred inheritance and sharing it with the world. Hungary is quite unique.

[@hajnalsimon9520]

Asher Quinn Thank you for your kind response

Geweldige zanger! Music to open your heart completely! Heb al een aantal CD's aangeschaft!

[@wbworkout]

This has an almost Renaissance feel to it. I can almost see the courtly dancers. I also in my early music years loved Baroque Music, I still do and loved Handel, Bach and Vivaldi. I have been working on stretching my musical synapses by studying some two part invention and Preludes and fugues by Bach. This music still reminds me of Courtly Dances and has a lovely lilt it. It could be the music backdrop to a Franco Zefferelli film. I like the cyclical feel of the music that part that returns and anchors one in th whole of the price. Well done!

[@AshaSongs]

My very first piece from my very first album. A sort of 'Pachelbel's Canon' but in a minor key.

[@wbworkout]

Asher Quinn Thank you for your kind comments back on my comment, that what makes your music more personal. I know that you can't reply to all and no doubt many people write you so In especially appreciate the way you acknowledge my engagement in your music. Well done, safe journey this day and forward.

[@marydelaat22]
