I began by decoding the music itself it and paying close attention to the variety of elements the composer, Chopin, might've embedded within his composition, for instance the tempo markings, dynamics, etc. Studying the score has allowed me to gain a deeper understanding of Chopin's intentions; a free-form, spirited, and light-hearted improvisation to which one may imagine whimsical butterflies quickly fluttering in the spring, then a shadowy and whimsical fog. As with all works of Chopin, I particularly enjoyed learning and playing the piece and I do not think I could ever be tired from its musical beauty.

To me, creativity means observing the world we live in through a colorful and artistic lens, each one being different from the other, making it unique. I believe that through an endless myriad of art forms we are able to unveil an individual sense of self each and every time.
