Isolation

This suite in 5 movements was written during the Corona pandemic and is inspired by experiences and feelings during this period. Feelings like insecurity, frustration, happiness, sorrow, hope, and optimism are the underlying themes, and this can be heard through the music. This is not, however, program music, so the audience may have their own perception of what the music is about.

This piece provides the opportunity to focus on the different elements of music, such as dynamics, articulation, expression, tone control and timbre.

The five movements can be performed separately.
