Me

Programme Notes

Me is a musical exploration of solitude—a study of a solitary figure navigating life without a soulmate to share it with. Does this person find happiness and contentment on their own? Do they yearn for companionship, or do they feel fulfilled despite the absence of a life partner?

On the surface, the piece may seem sparse or empty, but beneath that is an emotional complexity. The flute serves as the voice of the character, shifting between moments of optimism and fragments of solitary, introspective notes. This contrast reflects the ambiguity of the individual’s inner world—torn between hope and isolation.

Composing Me was a deeply introspective process. I immersed myself in the emotional nuances of solitude, exploring both its joys and its challenges. This piece captures the essence of living alone, with all its contradictions.
