There is a great tradition of music inspired or based on nature and its phenomena. I believe that, from a certain point of view, my music is part of this tradition.

The word Komorebi, as far as I know, has no translation in any language other than Japanese, although the "light becoming visible" phenomenon is well known. The contrast between sunlight and shadow, and the way the two dance together, is a vision that artists of all types and eras try to capture: the interplay of light and darkness. 

But my intention here is not to represent or describe the phenomenon; much less make it a metaphor. The intention in my music is to translate the sensation of seeing the light that passes softly through the leaves and branches of a forest, thus becoming visible. I work with sound layers, delicate musical elements that float and cross more concrete, solid forces, calling attention to the smoothness. What we must listen to is the most quiet, the most fragile.

Harmonies, textures, and fragments of melodies, each in their own way, create layers of sound that come from the background to the foreground, requiring our attentive listening. Sometimes these layers return to a secondary position. Sometimes they disappear and become an exhalation. 

In this way, the music creates a flow of more or less concrete elements, suggesting the atmosphere of a forest pierced by soft light.

„Ach“, sagte die Maus, „die Welt wird enger mit jedem Tag. Zuerst war sie so breit, daß ich Angst hatte, ich lief weiter und war glücklich, daß ich endlich rechts und links in der Ferne Mauern sah, aber diese langen Mauern eilen so schnell aufeinander zu, daß ich schon im letzten Zimmer bin, und dort im Winkel steht die Falle, in die ich laufe.“ – „Du mußt nur die Laufrichtung ändern“, sagte die Katze und fraß sie. - Franz Kafka, 1920
