Empty Harbour, Reddish Sea 空港,赤海 (2021) for two pianos by Zhuosheng Jin 金卓晟 published on 2024-04-25T04:31:16Z Live recording by Nora Popescu and Otto Popescu, March 13th, 2024 in Montreal, Canada. Distinguished prize of 2021 Luba Zuk Composition Prize, Canada. Score purchase: https://www.babelscores.com/catalogs/instrumental/6989-empty-harbour-reddish-sea This piece is directly inspired by the enormous cross and the reddish sea in "Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance." I was a fan of Evangelion for a period. In this composition, I attempt to depict a grand, fatalistic apocalyptic vision and connect it with potential rebirth and "love" (in its most intricate meanings). Is there an unconscious autobiographical element in this work? I cannot say for sure. Cover picture © Neon Genesis Evangelion Genre contemporary classical
