Lauren Scott - Beyond the Horizon

For Mattia (on lever harp)

Beyond the Horizon, Lauren Scott’s debut solo album, casts a twilight glow on the unique qualities of the traditional lever harp – also referred to as the Celtic harp. With a gorgeous interpretation of For Mattia.



FEICO SOLO

Feico Deutekom - Feico Solo

For Mattia

The pianist Feico Deutekom has recorded a beautiful new album with my piece For Mattia. His interpretation is lyrical and subdued at the same time and I am grateful that the piece spreads across the world in this beautiful way.
