    Your music is extreamly soothing in a world in chaos. Humanity may be lost, staggering in its own vomit, for lock of direction, purpose, or a truth compas. But the music on this titanic is bloody fantastic.

    @stephensmith3535 Před 3 lety

    I realize that this beautiful piece was composed pre-pandemic, but I cannot help but think that this performance in June 2021 reflects much of our shared experiences of forced solitude--- loneliness bordering at times on despair but with decided notes of joyful optimism and self-contentment. Gorgeously written, the collaborative rendition by the composer, Alex Verster, and the pianist, John Reddihough, was both brilliantly executed and lovingly delivered to the audience. I cannot stop listening to it. Bravi, gentlemen!
