Time creates ghosts. A faded photo, a sound, an object such as an old book or a toy, a grave, a dream, an evening alone – any of these things can carry us back into the shadowy past, sometimes even far away into ancient times. Every second that passes produces more ghosts – more memories, memories to ponder in the present and memories sometimes fading into eternity taking with them their joys and sorrows.
This CD is from a concert of short music pieces and poetry. There are 3 different types of pieces on this disk: (1) flute and piano, (2) narrator, flute and piano, (3) narrator, flute and choir.
