Methodology
The piece unfolds in three distinct parts: a creepy introduction, followed by an energetic section that builds tension, and culminating in a dramatic conclusion. I wanted to create a "story" that encapsulates my perception of a mummy. At first glance, it’s a terrifying monster, evoking instinctual fear that sends one fleeing. Yet, beneath that horror lies a deeply tragic fate. Imagine a being, once a significant diplomat or something similar, brought back from the dead through some dark magic. What if this mummy regained consciousness and remembered who they were after emerging from a tomb after 4000 years? With a decaying body and all the memories of a life that is now lost to time, the contrast is heartbreaking. It could easily serve as the plot of a Tim Burton film to me
