Moments Worth Listening For
The rapid-fire roll call of classic authors over a minimalist string pulse in The Booklovers.
The way the arrangement swells into a triumphant, soaring waltz during the final chorus of Tonight We Fly.
The sound of a bath being drawn that transitions seamlessly into a delicate piano melody.
