A Stranger to Reality
String Quartet and Piano
(2009) 6:00
A Stranger to Reality is about the feeling of confusing fantasy with real life. The piano plays an ostinato which serves as a representation of reality. The flute, trumpet and strings gradually enter and eventually the piano line becomes obscured, becoming lost in the rest of the music, like being lost in a fantasy. Eventually, the piano's ostinato changes, representing an altered reality.
