I'm excited to relate that one of my new musical collaborations is beginning to bear fruit.

Rivkah has already sung some lyrics of mine, performing with eliotE & the ritournelles on the lullaby Wheel of Dreams, and just yesterday she informed me that she has now managed to bash out a melody on her toy piano for a new song I wrote specifically for her a couple of months ago.

This is a new way of working for Rivkah, who is more used to writing her own lyrics (and only after coming up with the music first), so I'm honoured that she liked the words I offered her enough to try and make something out of them.

I haven't even heard the result yet, but I know I'll love it - I love everything about her swirling sound - and I'm too excited to keep the news to myself.

The song is called Splitting The Atom.
