Work introduction
I grew up in during the 70's and 80's going to music school in the afternoons and listening to the great orchestral movie soundtracks during the weekends. As a result my music is a combination of my concert music training and the movie soundtracks I listened while growing up. In this work in particular, a love tone poem, or a love theme for an imaginary film, I write in the tradition of those wonderful love themes that one would encounter in movies a few decades ago. This music was not composed for any film but for the film each one of the listeners will create in his or her own mind when listening.
