FIRE + LIGHT
(2022)
for cello & piano | 3 minutes
​
Fire + Light is a fleeting, altogether-too-short musical moment which is meant to leave the listener wanting more. Whether they want more of the soaring, sliding cello melody, or the relentless rhythmic progressions in the piano is up for each to feel for themselves.
 
The desire is for the ending of this piece to inspire a launch back into the beginning, or a continuation into another related musical realm.
 
In three distinct sections (“Fire”, “+”, and “Light”), the musical language explores the flickering of fire, the overwhelming of light, and the magic of darkness being painted and distorted. Dive into the colours and the fire, then dive on in again.
