  • Sheet Music + Digital Album

    A piece of the history behind the composition, as a collector's item: You get one of the draft prints of the libretto and score. These are full of annotations in pencil by the composer, they are the actual working copies that testify the progress of the composition, with coffee stains and all. I make a lot of notes with color pencils, for easier reference. The result can be quite interesting visually.

    Bound in red yarn and wrapped in plastic. Each original is unique and you'll be able to compare your exclusive draft to the final version on the book. Super cool. There are only 8 of these, they have been numbered chronologically. First come first serve.

about

Plastic Flowers - Concert Premiere.
Recorded Live. Dec 17th 2012.
New York - Engelman Recital Hall
Music and Libretto by Joao MacDowell

lyrics

Yet you left me all alone
In a house away from everyone
Just the highway and the halls

I could go out shopping
I could see the newest mall
But I never had a child,
And you only come home to sleep,
If at all.

You leave me waiting.
And I keep waiting
And waiting

Always when you're not here,
I am waiting,
Even when you are here,
You are never really here at all.

I see signs of time in the mirror,
I see signs of love that have gone
And I never get and answer
Why does the clock tick so loud?
