To play with expectations

Ostravská Banda (Photo: Femke de Jong)Blink Blink plays, as most of my pieces, with expectations. I wanted Blink Blink to be optimistic and short and give it an impression of being longer without being too short.
Therefore I was delighted Zsolt Nagy picked up the spirit of the music so well and even suggested the trombone players to stand up at a particular point to underline the effect.
You can see and hear it, to decide for yourself if I succeeded achieving my goals by watching the video of the first performance in Ostrava.
