Notes

In 2014 I was asked by Heloise Ph. Palmer to write a short piano piece, related to a love song I had written in 2012 that was entitled Being with you. I was certainly spellbound when I found out that the Latin word for love, amor, may be etymologically derived from the Latin a-mors, meaning ‘without death’. What more inspiring notion of such a powerful sentiment?
