In our hectic world, many of us are looking for new experiences and discoveries, be it in nature, art or music. But sometimes we forget that there is still so much beauty to discover in the familiar. Similar to a walk through nature, we can also find true treasures in music if we take the time to explore what is there.
When I go out into nature, I enjoy the little surprises that I encounter: an unfamiliar flower, the chirping of an unfamiliar bird or a scent that I have never smelled before. These small discoveries arouse my curiosity and enrich my experience of nature. It is the same with music.
In the world of music, many of us are constantly on the lookout for the latest, the most innovative, the most avant-garde. But we often overlook the hidden treasures that lie in the works of past times or lesser-known composers. There is a wealth of unknown works waiting to be discovered and many talented composers who deserve more attention.
