- Eichhorn wrote the following about the inspiration behind the piece:
- “I wrote the piece in 2020 after my return from New York. New York became my favorite city when I had the great opportunity to stay there with my family for several months. We lived in a skyscraper in downtown Manhattan… Right before the pandemic we came back to Germany. I always get a bit melancholic and think about the exciting time in New York when I play the piece.”[Source]
