- Here She Comes, There She Goes AKA Frugtlös vals med dig This song has never been recorded. I composed this many years ago.

Later Trinelise Væring wrote the most beautiful lyrics about how to appreciate the little things in life.

- Instrumental jazz tunes. 

- Come Home To Me. This is a 2 voice "invension" on the chords of the Cole Porter song "You'd Be So Nice To Come Home To". One voice is simple and inside and the other is very chromatic. As you can hear on the audio example, I like to start off the solos by letting the melody carriers continue improvising together in the language of the composition, so that there isn't a clear change from melody to improvising. I wanted to offer a "language" in which to speak about "You'd Be So NIce To Come Home To". 34.2 KB
