DE TENEBRIS, AD LUCEM (String Quartet)

De Tenebris, ad Lucem — "From Darkness to Light" — for String Quartet, captures a deeply personal journey through despair, searching, and eventual renewal. This work charts the emotional landscape of the composer’s experience: a passage through pain, uncertainty, and inner struggle, underscored by a persistent longing for truth, light, and strength. The music reflects moments of hopelessness and wandering, yet always with an undercurrent of yearning — a reaching toward something greater. At its heart, this is a story of resilience: the belief that even in the depths of darkness, the promise of light remains. Through trial and tribulation, the composer holds fast to hope, ultimately seeking the joy and peace that follow endurance and growth.
