*Price in US dollars
Total Duration: c. 9’19
On Vacation, composed between 2003 and 2009, was inspired by the soundtracks of Cinema Paradiso. It consists of a set of four short pieces, each telling their own story.
A Walk In The Woods (c. 2’20) depicts a couple taking a stroll in the woods.
At The Carnival (c. 1’52) tells the story of two mischievous boys going to a carnival and having fun. There, they watched the performance of a clown and a juggler, then danced with girls they met there. While they were enjoying themselves, they suddenly remembered that it was already past dinner time. They then scrambled over each other and ran all the way home, with the last chord depicting them slamming the door shut.
Out At Sea (c. 2’15) describes a family going out to sea on a boat and the things they see along the way, and
By The Fireplace (c. 2’52) describes a couple spending a romantic time together, in front of a fireplace in winter during Christmas season. Sipping champagne, they talk about life, loved ones and their goals in life. They also re-declare their love and appreciation for each other. As the evening draws to a close, they lovingly embrace and look out the window at the falling snow and into the night sky.
