Program Notes:

Feel Fragments" draws its inspiration from the poetic and fragmented nature of Hannah Ensor's and Laura Wetherington's work. This composition explores the concept of fragmentation in both form and emotion. The goal was to create a piece that diverged from my typical compositions, emphasizing rhythm while conveying the sensations of push and pull. The composition unfolds in three distinct phases, each reflecting a different emotional and rhythmic landscape.
