Winter Waking - Jayson Quah

The inspiration for Winter Waking came from a trip I took to a forest that was filled with fresh snow from the previous night. The piece opens with the first steps on the trail into the forest: there are huge trees all around, and snow covers every inch of the ground. The majestic scene incites a feeling of awe, and as you take more steps on this trail, snow sparkles all around. It's absolutely silent apart from your footsteps and the occasional breeze and rustling of leaves. As you walk deeper into the forest, you realize that it isn’t still and there is motion happening all around you. Snow flows like sand off a low branch, a snowflake drifts from the sky into your palm where it melts and disappears. In the distance you hear the sound of snow falling to the ground, to your left, your right, behind you. Suddenly, a gust of wind blows and you find the source of this sound as a pile of snow is dislodged from a tree’s branches in front of you. It falls to the ground as a shimmering blanket of crystals, and then disappears into the layers of snow on the ground. The more you walk, the more you realize that the wintery scene around you does not sleep. It wakes whenever one finds the time to truly appreciate it.
