About this track...
Monash University music graduate James Mustafa wrote this short, eloquent piece, featuring evocative tones of the low flutes. The opening chords are are beautifully voiced, exposing the low frequencies of the ensemble and their voice-like qualities. The intro makes way for the haunting flute melody, which unfolds with the beauty of a low flower.
