Songkeeper: Of A Sunrise

"You remind me of a sunrise, only faster." Those words, spoken to me by my dear one, were what originally inspired this song. I felt it fitting to play this as the sun came up over Snow Canyon, near Ivins, UT. It was a bit of a tough climb to get to that rock outcrop with my walking stick flute in hand, but it was well worth it! There was a fantastic canyon echo at that spot, but, sadly, it doesn't come through well in the video. My walking stick flute is in the key of G, and was made by Dennis Fredericksen of NZT Designs.

Original music and performance by Stephen Cumberworth.

Okay.  I see you don't accept video responses; as it's my shtick, I'm a bit dissapointed. I'll have to make do in words.

Mr Cumberworth, this is by far the best video location anyone has used for music as a side to the actual main course, you playing the music. It was beautifull. These words cannot truly express the happiness brought by this.

Thank you very much for sharing this with us. I have subbed to you and sent you a friend request.

Have a nice one!

Aye, unfortunately, I'd gotten too many video responses that had nothing whatsoever to do with my videos, and it got a little annoying. Sorry. :P

I really appreciate the comments that you've posted, and I thank you for the kind feedback. This is one of my favorite videos, and one of my most personal songs.  I'm pleased that it's been so well received..
