We should be moving forward together in cooperation, not in further opposition and competition. There is ONE thing for certain: HUMANITY is not a political issue. To Beatrice, my brightest star and the funkiest friend that I could ever know. Their influence and presence that is now embedded in my DNA compels me to Be with the highest integrity that I am possibly inclined to. To my teachers, of whom have so articulately and openly shared their traditions, craft and minds with me. I am grateful to have experienced such sincere life and laughs together over the years. I feel extremely fortunate to have such a vast support system of truly inspiring people in my life who continuously have my back and who constantly turn me on to new things and push me to higher levels. To my exceptional friends, peers, and colleagues, near and far, old and new. To my parents, Jim and Nancy Farkas, who have been a constant, loving support in my life and who have nurtured my creative knack and endeavors from the very start. The piece deliberately closes modestly and unresolved, leaving an open question for what is yet to come. One's own perspective can change anything and everything.
Perhaps that's not the case at all.maybe it's entirely the opposite and we've just been made to believe in another abstract fallacy, instilled by generations of one-sided story tellers that had the fortunate position to write the theory books? Certainly, a minor chord is just as beautiful and nobel as the more socially normalized or obvious, Major flavor. Who's even to say which feeling is appropriate of a minor or Major harmony? We're somewhat conditioned to associate Major as "happy" and minor as "sad", or that Major represents "good", and minor suggests "bad". That line can seem so plainly observable, yet, simultaneously obscured by one's own perspective, context or experience. Throughout Cave, I enjoyed the play between the minor and Major resolves, finding a cliche´ but fitting parallel to the instability of the world the stark duality between hope and despair, good and evil, or forwards and back. This is one of my more deliberate pieces of music that I've created and I am very proud to share it as a new contribution. This piece's theme became a prayerful, melodic representation of the past year to me in isolation, to which great gratitude and new learnings have come of the certain quiet and personal introspection.
