A surname or family name is a name added to a given name. In many cases, a surname is a family name and many dictionaries define "surname" as a synonym of "family name". In the western hemisphere, it is commonly synonymous with last name because it is usually placed at the end of a person's given name.
In most Spanish-speaking and Portuguese-speaking countries, two or more last names (or surnames) may be used. In China, Hungary, Japan, Korea, Madagascar, Taiwan, Vietnam, and parts of India, the family name is placed before a person's given name.
The style of having both a family name (surname) and a given name (forename) is far from universal. In many countries, it is common for ordinary people to have only one name or mononym.
The concept of a "surname" is a relatively recent historical development, evolving from a medieval naming practice called a "byname". Based on an individual's occupation or area of residence, a byname would be used in situations where more than one person had the same name.
Carl Heinrich Maria Orff (German: [ˈkaɐ̯l ˈɔɐ̯f]; (1895-07-10)July 10, 1895 – March 29, 1982(1982-03-29)) was a German composer, best known for his cantata Carmina Burana (1937). In addition to his career as a composer, Orff developed an influential approach toward music education for children.
Carl Orff was born in Munich on July 10, 1895. His family was Bavarian and was active in the Army of the German Empire. His paternal grandfather was a Jew who converted to Catholicism.
Orff started studying the piano at the age of five, and he also took organ and cello lessons. He soon found that he was more interested in composing original music than in studying to be a performer. Orff wrote and staged puppet shows for his family, composing music for piano, violin, zither, and glockenspiel to accompany them. He had a short story published in a children's magazine in 1905 and started to write a book about nature. In his spare time, he enjoyed collecting insects.
By the time he was a teenager, having studied neither harmony nor composition, Orff was writing songs; his mother helped him set down his first works in musical notation. Orff wrote his own texts and, without a teacher, learned the art of composing by studying classical masterworks on his own.

Classic piece taken from Orff Schulwerk Volume 1: Musica Poetica. Personally, I believe Gassenhauer to be one of the greatest life pieces ever created and I always feel like taking a really deep breath and running around the world when I listen to it. I hope you all feel similar when you listen to it and please feel free to comment on your feelings when you listen. Enjoy!

Try To Say Goodbye
Jory Eve
(I Still Know What You Did Last Summer)
I'm holding a letter that I wrote last night
Tryin' to remember what it says inside
The words are written but never been said
Your voice keeps calling in my head
I don't believe it's time
But I try to say goodbye
But I feel so lost inside
I don't know my name
And I can't erase what's weighing on my mind
It says I'd be leavin' on a redeye plane
But I know I'm coming back again
You've heard the story a thousand times
The song is playing in your mind
I'm asking myself why
Then I try to say goodbye...
But I feel so lost inside
I don't know my name
I can't erase what's weighing on my mind
I try to stay awake, trying to write the words
And I'm trying to write the word goodbye
... to say goodbye
But I feel so lost inside
I don't know my name
And I can't erase what's weighing on my mind
And I try to say goodbye
But I feel so lost inside
And I try to say goodbye
And I try...
And I try... to say goodbye
And I try to say goodbye
I try...
