A Sunflower Under The Blue Sky

Work introduction
This work was selected as 2nd place in the Rodrigo Landa-Romero International Composition Competition 2022 and performed by Rodrigo Landa-Romero.
We will never forget what started in February 2022. Sunflower dignifiedly looks up at the cannonballs and drones under the blue sky and endures the end.
“The colours created by the harmonies are quite unique, with very lyric melodies and interesting variations. The middle section has a Spanish-minimalistic feel that contrasts well with the main theme. A greatly achieved work overall”.
