The piece "sunset over the hill", composed in 1999, has been released in various arrangements over the years. This time, it has been restructured for solo with piano accompaniment for the first time in twenty-five years.
The composition is of very pure nature, and while there may be a sense of corniness, it is hoped that performers will evoke the nostalgia of evening time, as well as the rapid changes of scenes at sunset, during their performance.
