This sculpture was the muse which inspired this piece. WhenI begin creating a new piece of music, there is no particular formula I follow. I add a part here and a part there. Hardly realizing it is happening, a relationship is formed between myself and the composition. There develops passion, commitment and the desire to resolve inherent problems.
Some pieces present more than their fair share of challenges.
Blossoms of Eternal Moments is the musical re-creation of a childhood journey of friendship and loss. Yet the actual experience was benign when compared to the musical one. I spent weeks tuning instruments before reading an article that explained why I was having such a difficult time. It didn't solve the problem, but it alleviated the doubts I was experiencing that my ears were closer to rust than gold. On the other hand, Windows to the Sky was waiting to be born.
