Whenever any of us leave one place for another, we leave something behind. Having lived in four different countries and traveled to two more in the last five years, I often found myself missing aspects of all of them. In “Longing”, these sensations are expressed through the sustained notes and register gaps of the bassoon; I hope every listener can find a part of themselves in it.
