One of the earlier pieces I wrote, played, sang and recorded. It has heart. It’s not written about an individual, but about friends in general. And yes, again, that’s me singing. (All songs Copyright 2000-2022, Glen Rhodes)
This song was inspired by a few things. First, my first solo flight in an airplane while I was taking flying lessons, and second by the movie “The Aviator”. It’s tells a story; whimsy, tension, relief (landing). [audio:http://www.glenrhodes.com/audio/firstflight.mp3|titles=First Flight|artists=Glen Rhodes] (All songs Copyright 2000-2009, Glen Rhodes)

Imagine a mountain, with a spring gently trickling down it. This is the story that this song tells – it is one of nature and harmony. [audio:http://www.glenrhodes.com/audio/themountainspring.mp3|titles=The Mountain Spring|artists=Glen Rhodes] (All songs Copyright 2000-2009, Glen Rhodes)

The feeling of time passing, quite some sadness in this – especially the clarinet and the flute. This one is a hybrid because it has both drums and orchestral. (All songs Copyright 2000-2011, Glen Rhodes)
