What was your starting point for this project?
It was one of those pandemic projects, where you suddenly have a lot of time and you are just. I was moved by the masterful depiction of his experience of time. We’ve loved Beethoven’s Op. 132 for many years, and I think TS Eliot also loved it. There is this transcendental quality, or something beyond time. So I guess I was just playing around with ideas when we were suddenly in a completely different reality.
