About the work 

In my work, I am dealing with the question of how immense a violin can be. With the relationship between the body as an instrument and the body of that plays the violin. Composing with everything that has been heard, and at the same time not taking anything for granted. As if playing the violin for the first time and a third ear appeared for all of us who were there.
