For my AS-level coursework I chose to study performing musicians. I was intrigued between the relationship of the musician and his passion for his music while performing for an audience. I visited music festivals and concerts but was most inspired by a french trumpet player called Eric Truffaz.

Searching the Void
AS final piece
AS final piece
(As a young musician and a developing human being one finds a sort of solitude in music. The music doesn't ask you to define who you are and where you are going. The relationship between the music and the musician seems to transcend all and thus creates a void. However even within that void change is the only constant factor.)
