Additional Information
Sing, Memory is one of three works that are related to the myth of Daphne and Apollo, the other two being for solo guitar (Apollo Toccate and Daphne Prelude – the latter piece providing some of the material for Sing, Memory). At the end of the myth Daphne is changed into a laurel tree, and this music imagines her reflections and recollections and is concerned with the idea of memory and its gradual transformation. It was first performed at the Villa Lill-Kallvik in Helsinki in 2013.
The piece has been recorded by Rody van Gemert and Assi Karttunen on the Pilfink label.
