Description
The title Up to the Sky was originally given to me by my son, who at the time of writing this piece was three and a half years old. I was looking for a way to describe the motion of the musical lines in this piece constantly striving upwards. When he threw a ball high into the air he would say it went "up to the sky."
Around this time, I discovered in one of his poetry books, the same line from a poem called Firefly by Li Po. The intersection was serendipitous. From different contexts, "up to the sky" evokes the mood of this piece.
From
FIREFLY
I think
if you flew
up to the sky
beside the moon,
you would
twinkle
like a star.
-Li Po
