    "every … Stave of Frederick Chopin’s Nocturnes for the Piano (2004) pays homage to a group of compositions which span the length of Chopin’s productive life and the evolution of his style. Sometimes it is not the full span of a life that I am interested in, but the accumulation of experience in late works by great artists and thinkers… I am searching for a kind of sublime." -Idris Khan
