Description:
This deeply personal work almost forced itself on me. It took its place in me until the moment came when I simply had to write it, something that doesn't happen often. It reflects a time of doubt (late 2023 and early 2024). I have always been fascinated by the colors in Rembrandt's paintings: very dark canvases, but always penetrated by a fine ray of light. I have tried to capture these colors in music. Even in the night, there is always a glimmer of hope. These are some of the keys to entering this work.
