“Melting Hours” — Inspired by Salvador Dalí’s “The Persistence of Memory”










"Every masterpiece has a melody. Welcome to Melodies on Canvas."


Time seems simple.

A minute is a minute. An hour is an hour. Yesterday becomes today, and today eventually becomes tomorrow.

But memory tells a different story.


This strange relationship between time and memory is one of the reasons Salvador Dalí’s The Persistence of Memory” continues to feel so fascinating.

The melting clocks seem to challenge our ordinary understanding of time.

“What would time sound like if it could melt?”

That question became the inspiration for my new instrumental composition, “Melting Hours.”
