Moment 01
First winter
Solitude was written in the first winter after moving to Canada. The ensemble falls away, and a single hang drum is left on stage.

Moment 02
The space between notes
The solo is sparse and echoing. The silences between notes carry as much of the story as the notes themselves.

Moment 03
Starting over
It's the quietest moment of the performance: one musician, alone in a new country, beginning again.
