A Distant Loss - AnthonyAttard

12th Jul 2025 14:39 - 1 year ago
Description : It was the flooding from Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans and Mississippi, that motivated me to make this song. It was a huge loss in life, August 29, 2005. The heart of jazz and blues suffered a terrible situation with almost 1500 deaths.
The song is as old as the incidence. Consider it a true reaction to something sad, so distant yet so close.

Hello Fanis
I had to dig into my hard disks to spot the song but when I listened to it I had the impression of a contemporary work so I am glad to know you liked it. Yes I remember those days, it was intense and as usual unfair..
Much love brother!

This piece carries so much weight-knowing it was inspired by the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina gives it even deeper meaning. The emotion in the music truly captures that sense of loss and resilience. Its a powerful tribute to a moment in history that still feels close, even after all these years. For those of us who only witnessed it on TV, the sound still manages to convey the gravity of it all. Beautifully done.

Hello Richard
Thank you once more for your time to listen and comment on my music. Undoubtedly there have been lots of other catastrophes and was, sorrow is something we don't lack in this world. It just happened and I made this song for the losses in that particular place of the world. I am more than content that you felt emotional gravity in it.
Best wishes, Anthony

I am trully glad you feel like it stirs the emotions well. It was composed for such a purpose, but spontaneously, it was what I felt at that time.

Thank you Glenn,
Thank you so much for your listen and your comment.
I am trully flattered to know you consider it a tribute (I was really thinking of using this word, but then hasitated ). Music is one of my life tools of expression. Inner and deeper thoughts become alive with music. It is my way and of course your way and the way of many people on LM, and this is wonderful.
Greetings from Greece, Anthony

A very moving piece - it conveys that incredulous disbelief of how a situation can change so quickly and dramatically - brings home the preciousness of life - beautiful music with real soul depth

Thank you so much for your comment, means a lot to me. Yes, it was a sudden and dramatical situation Kay, you could feel by the images the despair and the loss. Like a war from nature.
Best regards, Anthony

Description : One by One is a song of praise, gratitude and surrender to the Most High. It celebrates God's goodness, the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, and the freedom and new identity we receive through Him. With every blessing counted and every heart bowed in worship, we offer our sacrifice of praise and give all glory to the Lord.
