THE ROAD TO HERE is a festive, musical procession through the four seasons for two trumpets, horn, trombone and organ, inspired by ›Die Nelken-Reihe‹ by Pina Bausch

I composed THE ROAD TO HERE in 2018 at the request of brass quartet Ottoni on the occasion of their 25th anniversary. It consists of five short parts: (1) Parade, (2) Spring, (3) Summer, (4) Autumn and (5) Winter. The work has now been performed seven times.
