Come Back Like the Sea sets words from Sara Teasdale's poem 'Ebb Tide', in which the author uses the metaphor of the ocean's tide to symbolize life's inevitable ups and downs. The music captures the text's sea imagery and strong sense of yearning with a captivating opening soundscape that includes improvised sea sounds from the Basses, melodic lines that ebb and flow like the tide, and an expressive piano accompaniment that weaves throughout the work.

Katerina Gimon's uniquely dynamic, poignant, and eclectic compositional style is rapidly gaining her a reputation as a distinctive voice in contemporary Canadian composition. Her music has been described as 'sheer radiance', 'imbued with human emotion', and capable of taking listeners on a 'fascinating journey of textural discovery'. Her works have been performed widely across Canada, the United States, and internationally. Katerina's music draws inspiration from a myriad of places: from eastern European folk music to indie rock, as well as from her roots as a songwriter. She lives and works as a freelance composer in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
