The piece reflects a listening session and recording documentation at Karavolas Beach, located in Heraklion, Crete. It focuses on the environment’s subtle, often overlooked everyday sounds—the gentle flow of water, small debris shifting, and the quiet background of waves, rocks, and wind. Interwoven with these sounds is the Ave Maris Stella hymn, referring to the “star of the sea”, evoking themes of origin and distant direction, reaching both from a distant past and toward the future. The piece captures these reflections, offering a moment of contemplation on the natural world and the more profound, symbolic sense of beginnings and purpose.
