Desidus’ encapsulates the essence of desire, derived from the Latin word for longing. It represents the yearning for an ever-present horizon, always in view but never fully graspable. Throughout the piece, a recurring theme builds and intensifies, mirroring the perpetual flux of our aspirations. It crescendos to a peak, then gently subsides, not in surrender but in a tranquil acceptance. As Heraclitus suggested, desire flows like a river, where the passage of time transforms our longing into acceptance, and tension into a gentle surrender. It is a journey that reflects life’s metaphor: the pursuit of the infinite, understanding that true beauty lies in the journey itself. ‘Desidus’ is a reflection of this perpetual longing, beautifully expressed through its melodies
