about

"Small Pleasures" was composed in December of 2019 between the hours of 2-4 am at a small hotel located in the West End of Vancouver, Canada.

The music pays tribute to visual artist Wassily Kandinsky and draws heavily on his famous work "Concerning the Spiritual in Art".

Special Thanks to Torsten Muller
