'Red Book' Variations

Simon Frisch

The years when I pursued the inner images, were the most important time of my life. Everything else is to be derived from this.
- Carl Gustav Jung

The 'Red Book' Variations were inspired by the stunning illuminations Carl
Jung drew in the intense red-bound journal he kept to document visions
from his voyage through his unconscious, known as the 'Red Book'.
Set in one continuous movement, the music moves through four sections
of increasing density:
I. Solo
II. Duet
III. Trio
IV. Fugue
