ArtTapiaMusic& Words

Hello Friends! My name is Art, and I am a Vocalist/Composer and Writer, trying to share my work with a greater audience. Here you'll find original poems and texts, musical compositions and score videos, and posts from time to time about my process and thoughts throughout. Some subjects I like to cover include: Religion, Spirituality, LGBTQIA+ culture, and my general perspective on the world. I hope you enjoy, peace!

Here is a movement from a larger work advocating for increased inclusion and acceptance of LGBTQIA+ individuals in various Faith traditions; in particular, Christianity.

You

In the beginning,

In the morning

In my coffee.

You

In a phone call

In a photo,

In a smile.

You

You make me feel

You

For me

You

And your innocence

You

And your perversity

You

In the afternoon

You

And the clouds

It's you

The one that overrides me

The one that conquers me

The one that is inside me

In every way

In all forms

Of making love

There's you

Always you

In your gaze that desires me

In your arms around me

In your legs that chain me

Just for you

And only for me

And at the end

There's you.

Can you ever trust

that you’re safe

in these dark roads of life?

If you open

your heart and

welcome the night,

you’ll see that darkness

is just a new place

to shine your own light.

Hello friends!

Just thought I’d share another score with y’all. This time, it’s a revision of a piece I wrote back in 2021 (I believe, haha)

Here is “Adonai Ro’i” for Alto Flute, SATB Choir, and Harp.

So, it being Chanukah, I thought I'd share one of my favorite compositions "Hayleys Freilach". I composed this piece around the same time last year for my dear friend Hayley as (can you guess it?) a Chanukah Gift! I had so much composing and orchestrating this, and she absolutely loved it! Hope you all have a lovely holiday season, Chag Sameach!
