about

Call It Art is an acoustic folk duet with a slightly jazzy reharmonization, tenor vocal lines and an atmosphere that mirrors the hypnotic elements of ambient music. This nostalgic song is a homage to music creation; a tribute to the way in which music transforms thoughts, minds, hopes and emotions. Call It Art is Pini’s personal reflection on the joint work process with Tom Goldstein, his music producer. Pini was embraced by the world of music at a late stage in life, while already being an established university professor. This unusual transformation challenges social conventions pertaining to class, stature, and career, showing the magic that artistic expression can inflict upon any individual at any age in life. Most people would call it madness - but we call it art.

lyrics

Dark suburban alley lit
By soft computer lights
Chords becoming
Demons, angles, sprites

Have some coffee brother
It’ll help you sing
Notes that morph
Into a silver string

The glare of our own wishes
Returns to spark the night
Minds have been uncovered
By some breaking-free new heart
People call it madness
But we will call it art
We will call it art

Words that we are writing
Were whispered by the gods
Something new to carry
New to hold

Departed all known places
The trail of who we’d been
To dig new spaces
In the soul and skin

The glare of our own wishes
Returns to spark the night
Minds have been uncovered
By some breaking-free new heart
People call it madness
But we will call it art
We will call it art

See, there is no wrong or right
A journey to find our inner light
With a hungry state of mind
We hope you find it too
For us it’s holy music
It’s a prophecy for you

The glare of our own wishes
Returns to spark the night
Minds have been uncovered
By some breaking-free new heart
People call it madness
But we will call it art
We will call it art
We will call it art

Pini Gurfil Haifa, Israel

Israeli singer-songwriter Pini Gurfil composes rock-noir, soft-rock and jazz-swing music. His music is dynamic, melodic and melancholic, emphasizing instrumental solos while relying on a cinematic-like buildup of musical tension. The lyrics encompass portrayals of solitude, God, relationships and struggle, with subtle and ironical subtexts. ... more
