The winterbourne recording sessions were conceived out of the desire to express the dark and quiet
beauty of Winter. Sometimes the music looks out the window from the warmth of the hearth, at times it
ventures out to stand in the snow. With that, it reflects a longing for home reminiscent of the yeaning
spirit that surrounds us during the cold months, especially during the holidays.
