Endless by Lawrence Lau Hiu-Kong

荊棘 Thorns by Lawrence Lau Hiu Kong

The first inspiration comes from the Buddhist concept - “Thousand Universes within the Universe”. A boundless worldview suggested by the concept inspires the composer to imagine “thousand sounds within the sound”. With this idea, the composer uses the melody from the famous song by The Beatles - Let It Be, for constructing the structure of the music. The length of the melody is augmented to 7 minutes long with different colors and musical figures on the top of the augmented notes, creating an imaginary stretched time space.
