Program Notes
This is my orchestration of Galaxy, which is originally a piano piece that I wrote when I was 15. I still vividly remember the stunning star-lit sky over Akaroa Harbour that inspired this piece. The overwhelming beauty of something so distant seems to evoke a sense of wonder and melancholy within me.
