about
"Winter" by Hamilton, Canada-based composer and multi-instrumentalist SØLYS (Michael Chambers) is a solo piano piece inspired by the works of Erik Satie. Haunting and melancholic, this short composition evokes the loneliness of a winter landscape and the restlessness of a winter storm. The tempo is deliberately slow as time seems to come to a crawl through the winter as we wait for the arrival of spring.
