The inspiration for this piece came from the ways waves sort of quicken, bolden, come into one still idea, then refract again in still-bodies of water
It also came from the epic spiritual jazz song ‘village of the sun’ by ‘village of the sun’– upon listening, I thought, ‘this, but viola’, and so here we are.
