“This music is about my life and the few special “Dramatis Personae” (the “Characters” in my own “Show”) that make it worthwhile; Dance, dance, dance is a citation of Murakami Haruki, which I feel like an invitation to resilience, and the three movement titles summarize my feelings towards my wife Daniela and our two daughters. In my intentions, all three movements are “dance” music, in a somewhat dramatic way, strenuous and full of difficulties, both technically and metaphorically.”
