by billie eilish, and arranged by me, ray-michael kauffman.
this is part of my " Compositions that care" and all money this piece takes in, will be donated to a charity for recovery from addition.
When i first herd this song, for me this was painting a picture of someone who was an addict, where they seemed the life of the party , and was having such a good time, however , using to feel a certain way -whether that be normal, happy, to fit in, loved,.. how ever, addiction cripples those persons effected may truly feel lonely and empty .
I debated with myself if this is what cause i wanted to support and hopefully shed some light on, addiction and everything and every person this effects.It was the next day , i had learned a friend and former co-worker had committed suicide after a long struggle with addition. I knew then that this decision was the right one.

Madrigal by Orlando Gibbons arranged for instrumental quintet.
The words of the original are:
The silver swan, who living had no note,
When death approached
Unlocked her silent throat
Leaning her breast against the reedy shore,
Thus sang her first and last and sang no more
Farewell all joys, o Death, come close mine eyes:
More geese than swans now live, more fools than wise.
