All tunes composed by Samer R. Nassif


Little Miss A
I recorded my little daughter's babbling on multiple occasions. She appears to babble in the key of A, and loves chromatics. This tune is based on some of her babbling ideas.


Big Heart in the New World
I borrowed ideas from a tune I wrote a while ago called Big Heart, and used them in different ways. Still dedicated to the man with the same name.


The Brunette's Father
The melody of this tune was composed to be played specifically on the saxophone by Nidal Abou Samra, and hence the name of this tune.


The Barley Reel
Because barley and reels go well together.


Hops
Along with barley, one of the key ingredients of a great elixir.


The Journey West
A long and challenging journey in search of a better future.


Transcontinental Barley
With influences stretching from India to the USA, just like barley.
