The song was created extemporaneously, unfolding in real time, and built around an acoustic rhythm guitar and piano interplay wrapped in layers of strings and other textures.<\/p>\n<p>Like the music itself, the lyrics wander through the emotional landscape of those virtues we lose, search for, and sometimes rediscover. \u201cMusta\u201d asks where Joy, Hope, and Faith have gone, and whether Charity \u2014 love in its purest form \u2014 might still bring clarity. The piece ultimately circles back to the simplest conclusion: above everything else, love remains the constant.<\/p>\n<p><strong>From the album &#8220;<a href=\"\/songwriter\/tag\/in-the-rough\/\">In the Rough<\/a>&#8220;<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 align=\"center\"><a href=\"\/songwriter\/tag\/christmas-bliss\/\">Christmas Bliss<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/membrane.com\/xmas\/\">Christmas Home<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Musta.mp3 Musta.mp4 Musta-Unplugged-Underground-XXVII.mp3 Musta-Unplugged-Underground-XXVII.mp4 Musta-intro.mp3 [Intro] Where&#8217;s Joy?
