MARINER AT SEA
Digipak CD 2025
MUSIC FOR DOUBLE BASS AND ELECTRONICS
A Musical Journey Through Time: Inspired by 100-Year-Old Photographs
This collection of music draws inspiration from century-old photos captured by my grandfather during his travels across the seas between islands and mainlands around Mauritius. Each photo helps tell stories passed down to me, revealing the life experiences of generations before me.
Like strands of DNA, these stories weave the past into the present, carrying continuities that endure, passed from generation to generation.
In one poignant memory, the Mariner pauses as the ocean envelops him. Gazing back at the island where he grew up, the sorrows of the past flicker in and out of view. In the stillness of that moment, he whispers a final farewell: "I will never see you again." And with that, he sails away—forever.
