Förlagets information

The story about Adrian and his friends is a story about taking it easy. Having a good time with friends and other acquaintances. But there is supposed to be a little bit more to it – and hopefully this inspires its readers to play around with these (barely) hidden ideas between the first and the last page of the book. Throughout his adventure, Adrian gradually realizes that everyone he meets and everything he sees and experiences is a part of one consistent world. The broader idea of one common home for us all. His relentless attempts to find his way home gradually changes into getting to know the home he is already in – and a part of. Thus, not only the story as a whole, but in a sense, every chapter in itself, is a reflected loop. The story repeats itself with a dash of new insight for every round - and Adrian adjusts his approach to being astray accordingly. The music is composed to underscore the whole idea – not only the progression of the story. Although divided into eight small movements, one for each chapter, it is really just one movement. The main theme of the story, the motto appearing directly in the first movement, appears, more or less unchanged in every movement. But it also serves as a progenote for the individual mottos of each one of them. Together with the falling minor third accompaniment figure, it is the building block of the whole suite. Melodies, harmonies and rhythmical patterns. The music is kept very simple. It tries to capture the English tale telling tradition that the story is inspired by and the pastoral settings of the book. The only moment in the whole piece where a modulation is made is in the seventh movement (Here), where, in the story, Adrian realizes that he actually already is home and makes his small paradigm shift in how he views the world. The reunion with everything he thought he lost, especially his best friend, is almost instant. The last movement is a bit of a recapturing party. Characters and themes come together, and new ideas emerge, again, based on the previous. Why this approach? Well. The story is about transformation – not about departure. Experiencing our world as one. Growing, preferably together, through action and reflection. Taking it easy. Breathing. And maybe having a bit of fun on the way.
