Orchestral version of original work for flute, piano and choirs premiered in 2003.
In 2002 Imma Pascual, directress of many gerundense chorals, friend and collaborator, asked me to do a work for amateur chorals with reason of an act celebrated in La Bisbal d'Empordà for finding resources for the Leage Against Cancer of Girona.
I gathered some breathtaking quotes I had in a compilation book in my library, as: Life is what happens while you are bussy making other plans, quote by John Lennon which I didn't use, but I always take with me.
Out of this book I selected some of this quotes because of its optimistic and vital properties, and about them I created the musical work.
The version for symphonic orchestra was premiered in the show "A look back" in 2014.
