Inspired by the majestic waves and contemplative nature of the Pacific Ocean, Where the Sun Meets the Sea expresses sounds of the ocean's beauty through gentle melodies and shining harmonies. The piece utilizes the full range of the instrument while exploring shimmering highs and resonant lows. Expressive rubato passages create a sense of push and pull, evoking the ebb and flow of ocean waves. Where the Sun Meets the Sea captures the peaceful and endless expanse of the ocean horizon while offering a reflective and accessible piece for both the performer and audience.
