Dream Painting (Live At Sonore)

Performed by Helsinki Chamber Orchestra Conducted by James S. Kahane Recorded by Yle / Antti Snellman Performed on 14 December 2021 at Sonore Hall, Music Centre, Helsinki, Finland "It all started with dreams of colours... The through-thread of Dream Painting is the concept of stillness in motion. Even though at the surface the texture might be filled with movement, rapid scales, and fast repetitions, the underlying currents, especially with regards to harmony, are often slow-paced and meditative. The piece is essentially about painting one's imagination - with textures and colours, shapes and sonorities while pursuing a dream-like freedom that embraces the pure joy of making music. ...and it all ended with the colours of dreams."
