about

This piece, which comes in two versions - solo piano and harp/flute, was created while Karen was confined in her New York City apartment during the Coronavirus lockdown in April 2020. Although her compositions had become generally more introspective since her father’s passing in October 2019, the pandemic further intensified this trend of a more somber and peaceful tone. “Reflections" is a bit melancholy in nature and represents a surrendering to what is happening and what is to come, while reflecting on what once was and possibly will never be the same again. It was composed and recorded on an evening that was accompanied by the constant sound of ambulances, so although the song is sad, it was a beautiful contrast to the sirens. “Reflections” is a reminder that every feeling is relative to the situation and environment, which can change at a moment’s notice.
