About the piece:
“I have always been fascinated by the types of complex and sometimes nonsensical or irreconcilable narratives one may find in certain dreams. Additionally, I enjoy the various odd or extraordinary coincidences that sometimes occur in everyday life. Along those lines, I construct much of my music to avoid following a given or predictable narrative. Here’s an example: You think you’re about to bite into a steak but it actually turns out to be peanut butter ice-cream which, as you’re eating it, turns into a beautiful salad that turns out to taste like the steak you thought you were about to eat, when you realize it’s none of the above and you’re simply holding a glass of sherry which as you sip it turns out to be a review textbook for algebra which you then drop onto the table in shock, noticing that it was actually a stack of pancakes. My idea is to enter a world of dreams, where the imagination flows freely from moment to moment, so that each turn of events is about the moment we enter the moment.”
