When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us. (Helen Keller)

ALBUM INFO:

"The Idea Of You" is the first of a trio of neoclassical solo piano albums composed, performed, and produced by Andrew Souter. These projects have been two decades in the making and represent a return to traditional music composition, engaging song-writing, and the pure passion of emotional story-telling. This Andrew's most personal and intimate music. It is quite literally a love project. We hope it may it help you on your journey, as it has us...

The Idea Of You Cover Art "The Idea Of You" is music inspired by the spirit of Eros and all of its blessings as well as its tribulations. It explores the vicissitudes of romantic love, the delicate seasons and contour of life, and all the lessons learned along the way. Themes of desire, passion, limerence, romantic love, idolatry, jealousy, envy, loss, regret, forgiveness, acknowledgment, appreciation, acceptance, and eventually glimpses of true understanding permeate the work. It attempts to communicate that which so many of us can never quite communicate properly with words. It is an open apology for the clumsy mistakes we all make when coming to maturity in learning how to care selflessly for another human being. It is a gentle reminder as to what is most important in life, as well as an invocation to continuously seek self-improvement regarding our understanding of such matters.

Seasons: Acoustic Sessions marks the culmination of Narrow Skies' debut Seasons project, featuring beautiful viola performances (played by Louisa Tatlow) as well as Anita's signature soft vocals and dreamy piano. The three songs are evocative, nostalgic, and hint at the Nordic-inspired, nature-infused, reflective ambience of the original tracks.

Lyrics:

I want the wind to carry me 
Far away from here 
And as I fly, I'll take with me 
Moments left behind 

I want the sea to rescue me 
And carry me away 
I'll let the waves wash over me 
And listen for the voices of the tide 

(Away) 

Seasons they won't wait for me 
Swiftly they pass by 
With each new breath, new roads ahead 
Embracing every moment as my guide
