Love is Essential – by Anahita Abbasi and Ine Vanoeveren
Hybrid miniature piece composed during COVID-19 lockdown.
Many people are scared, struggling with this lockdown and social distancing or - which is worse - ignoring the necessary measures to defeat this virus. We made a contemporary artwork for everyone who needs extra love and extra art - but with an important message!
As close friends, we have collaborated together since the day we met. We were supposed to work together in real life at this moment, but the Corona crisis interfered. To feel better, we stuck to our creative promise, but we made it a virtual one.
Although the piece is originally written for flute, it is adaptable to any instrument and voice type. Therefore, we challenge all musicians to record their own version of this miniature piece (be creative!).
