“During an intimate live performance by James Murray, I heard (or thought that I heard) a beautiful melody embedded somewhere in his piece. After the show, I rushed home to dig up the track, so that I can experience again that same meditative state converging on a sense of elation... but the melody wasn’t there. Feeling a bit empty I sat at the piano and played anyway. The following day I sent James my musings, which he graciously incorporated into the original piece to produce this reworking of “Living Treasure”. Thus began our musical collaboration which is continuing to this day! ”
