About the Composition

For clarinet quintet.

In a very materialistic and direct way, I can say that the trees sing through these instruments because they are all made of wood, and before becoming musical instruments, they were part of a tree.

This short piece explores the idea that woodwind instruments carry the voice of the trees they came from. Inspired by the wind brushing through leaves, the music features delicate harmonic overtones and moments of stillness—like fruit hanging from a branch or a leaf gently suspended in air.
