Boston, Mass. - Dusk Song is Hearts in Notes' first CD and represents the return to professional music after 25 years of Michael Thomas, a veteran of Boston's 80's progressive music scene. Thomas detoured from the stage into a career in information technology where he won a number of prestigious awards including a Hammer Award, the Meritorious Public Service Award, and being hailed as a "Super CIO". Said Thomas, "While I left performing behind, I never left music behind, and it is thrilling to dive back into the deep end with renewed focus and energy!"
The music on Dusk Song evokes the moods one might feel while watching a sunset over water on a warm summer's evening. An eclectic combination of instruments and electronica is deployed to convey twilight ("Umbrage", "Dusk Song"); the light playing on the water ("Ebb Tide", "Silvery Waves") and the setting sun ("Set"). While pensive at times, the music is always positive, and songs such as "Summery" and "Tina Dancer" are celebratory in mood. As sunset leads to sunrise, the last two songs on the CD ("Sun Rising", "A Good Morning") hail the return of the sun and a new day.
Early on-line reaction to the music has been extremely positive. "I have been overwhelmed at the universal acceptance these songs have received", said Thomas, "The fans who have come forward are an incredibly diverse group, from every corner of the globe, and every age range. It is humbling."
