“The Last Goodbye in Casablanca,” Music After the Film #4

Some emotions survive long after the credits roll.

Casablanca is more than a classic romance. It is a story about love, sacrifice, memory, and the choices that shape our lives forever.

"The Last Goodbye in Casablanca" is not a reinterpretation of the original soundtrack.

Instead, it is an entirely original instrumental composition created as part of the Music After the Film series, exploring the emotions left behind after the story ends.

A farewell.

A final glance.

A love that remains only in memory.

Thank you for listening and supporting original cinematic music.

“Fractured Beauty” | Music Inspired by Picasso's “Les Demoiselles d'Avignon”

Can a painting become music?

 

This original instrumental composition was inspired by Pablo Picasso's groundbreaking masterpiece, “Les Demoiselles d'Avignon.”

 

Painted in 1907, the work challenged traditional artistic conventions and became one of the most influential paintings in the history of modern art. Its fragmented forms and radical perspectives laid the foundation for Cubism and forever changed the visual language of art.

 

With this composition, I sought to translate the painting's bold energy, tension, mystery, and revolutionary spirit into sound.
