Inspired by the poem 'Leisure' by W. H. Davies. It serves as a reminder to not be too caught up in the goals we are chasing and just appreciate what the present has to offer.
ROAD TO OMAN
Composition for Jazz Combo (6-piece)
The theme of the music is centred around nostalgia, and how we all have moments in life that we want to relive, however certain obstacles in life keeps us from doing so, for example, distance. Those moments remain forever in the memory, and the music seeks to take the listener on a journey through these memories with playful jazz, blues, and funk sections.
