OPEN MIC WEEK 16 - Strange Music by Transhuman

The song, "Strange Music", comes from the stage play and motion picture titled Song of Norway which tells the story of the famous Norwegian composer, Edvard Grieg. "Strange Music" is based on Edvard Grieg's "Nocturne" and "Wedding Day in Troldhaugen" with the musical adaptation done by Robert Wright and George Forrest.

Strange Music

Strange music in my ears,
Only now as you spoke did it start,
Strange music of the sphere,
Could its lovely hum be coming from my heart?

You appear and I hear song sublime,
Song that I'm incapable of,
So dear, let me hold you near,
While we treasure every measure,
So that time can never change
The strange new music of love.

You appear and I hear song sublime,
Song that I'm incapable of,
So dear, let me hold you near,
While we treasure every measure,
So that time can never change
The strange new music of love.

Here is my submission to Open Mic 16...

My interpretation of "Strange Music" is performed on a Korg Microarranger with its powerful advanced sound engine. I gave the piece a Romantic/Classical feel because Grieg is widely considered one of the leading Romantic era composers, and his music is part of the standard classical repertoire worldwide.
