New Moon is a four-part instrumental piece I wrote together with one of my long-time guitar students, Edi Moldovan. We’ve been working together for about 7–8 years, and over time he kept bringing in composition ideas that felt too strong to remain just exercises. When I started sketching the first chords of this piece, I felt it could become something we should build together, so I sent him the draft and challenged him to develop his own themes and directions from there.
What followed was a back-and-forth process where we shaped the piece into its final form. New Moon is, for me, a dialogue between two musical perspectives, one built through experience, the other driven by a fresh and instinctive approach. It’s a project that reflects both collaboration and the moment when a student becomes a creative partner.
