The idea for this song came to me several years ago. Somehow the song "I Am a Child of God" sounded like "Cradle Song" by Johannes Brahms, the latter sometimes being referred to simply as Brahms' Lullaby. I worked on it then and didn't do much with it. More recently I brushed it up and got permission to arrange it. It is available for piano to accompany a duet, and as a piano with violin or flute descant. I'm hoping to get it recorded at some point. I'm thinking of using a soprano and a tenor, but have thought about other combinations such as a parent and child since "I Am a Child of God" is from the perspective of a child and "Brahms' Lullaby is from the perspective of a parent, so I think that would be a neat arrangement.

First recordings made!
My daughter and I went to Rosewood Recording Studio this morning. I had a great experience making my first recordings. Guy explained everything and was very easy to work with. I now have not only sheet music, but some MP3 downloads as well.

music trouble
I've liked music for longer than I can remember. My mother tells me that when she was pregnant with me I would "dance" whenever an organ or piano was played at church. I don't remember that, so I'll take her word for it. I do remember always wanting to get close enough to play whatever piano I saw, even as young as 3 or 4. I would somehow make my way over to the piano and start making noise with the keys. I would twirl the piano stool higher and lower, and play with the piano as long as I was allowed to. Anybody else out there get in trouble for playing pianos at a young age?
