Water has always been a part of humanity and it’s evolution. It enables life. But also it entails devastating effects as the latest events show: The rising sea level, hurricanes in the US and floods in Europe bring calamity over the whole world and even kill people. For the Beyond Music Project Vol.3 we wanted to create music expressing the conflicts around water and therefore set the poem „Water“ by Ralph Waldo Emerson to music.
This composition is titillated "Hopes". When I composed it on the piano I had an imagine of a better world and hopes that somethings will change in this world, in all aspects, environment, pollution, respect between people and conflicts between countries.
