Notes from Shirley

Out There, Right Here is a collection of pieces composed with intention, stillness, and presence.  Each note was played in real time, shaped by emotion — a quiet journey through space and back to the heart.

​

I wanted each piece to feel like part of a story — connected, gentle, and emotionally alive.

​

This album was created to be experienced as a whole — with each track gently flowing into the next, offering a sense of movement and meaning.

​

It reflects the belief that music is a living expression — something to be felt, breathed, and experienced fully.    — Shirley Cason

ABOUT THE ALBUM

OUT THERE, RIGHT HERE is an instrumental journey that explores the cosmic and earthly realms within us all. A seamless blend of serene space exploration and grounded introspection, this album takes listeners on a voyage that begins with the infinite expanse of the universe and ultimately brings us back to the heart of Earth.

From the expansive VOYAGE TO THE HEART to the evocative LIFT OFF TO THE UNKNOWN, each track encapsulates the emotional and physical distances we travel—internally and externally. BETWEEN STARS AND EARTH speaks to the delicate balance between our dreams of the cosmos and our roots here on Earth, while HEART OF THE COSMOS and COSMIC BREATH invite us to pause and reflect, connecting the infinite with the intimate.

In a world where we are often encouraged to seek something ‘better,’ OUT THERE, RIGHT HERE offers a gentle reminder that the true richness of our journey lies not in escaping to the stars, but in embracing the beauty, fragility, and depth of the planet we call home. As the journey concludes with HOMEWARD BOUND, listeners are reminded that no matter how far we go or what we explore, the most profound and meaningful destination is the Earth beneath our feet—where real change, growth, and connection can begin.

In times of global uncertainty, environmental change, and social unrest, OUT THERE, RIGHT HERE encourages us to reflect on our relationship with our planet and each other. It speaks to the importance of finding balance, unity, and peace right here at home, in the present moment, amidst the vastness of the universe.
