A Note from Justin
Sometimes life feels as though it’s in black and white. Is it our routine? Our work? Or are we simply not asking the right questions?
 
This piece is a musical daydream - a reverie about wonder and imagination. It’s about bringing life into the present moment, so that future moments can be full of life.
 
Musically, it draws on simple ideas - scales, thirds and triads - but the real challenge is what happens between the notes.
 
It’s very easy to destroy the space in this piece.
 
How much can you allow for space?
