“It is an abstract piece, character is counterpoint and base of the movement in the pieces structure. This character represents a memory that appears and as long as it doesn’t go away, the other characters cannot free themselves from their movement, their world.” This experience has specific rhythm: Travelers have different rhythms even though some passages are unavoidable. Memory is accompanied and dreamers continue to go forward.
