> note:

the title, “till minne av”, is swedish and means “in memory of”. the piece is a continuous reflection on what has come before. each new event is a possible result of the previous one. it is also, in a sense, an obituary for the death of silence, or a metaphor for the realisation that everything that has a beginning has an end - and each sound that is born must without compromise die eventually.
