PROGRAMME NOTE:
This is my orchestration of 'Galaxy', which is originally a piano piece that I wrote when I was 15. I still vividly remember the stunning star-lit sky over Akaroa Harbour that inspired this piece. The overwhelming beauty of something so distant seems to evoke a sense of wonder and melancholy within me.
