I strongly believe change is ever constant and is necessary. Change is definitely difficult; change can be exceptionally overwhelming; but change is what drives us to become a better version of ourselves. At many points during the change, it might seem hard. But when you turn around and take a look at how far you have come, I promise you, it will all be worth it.
This thesis is not only an artistic research, but also a testament to myself, that I possess the strength and tenacity to enact change and to shape my life in the way I yearn for. This is definitely not the end of my growth as a musician and as a person, I see this research as a checkpoint. I hope that in time to come, when times get rough, this will serve as a personal reminder to keep pressing on.
