Stefan Kraus | David

Portrait No. 11 for woodwind quartet and cello
After my pretty and funny pieces of late, I was in desperate need of something more serious. And so I completed this piece, which I started in November 2023.
David's life was characterized by a deep sadness and at the same time a longing for beauty and lightness. He is a fictional character, so I designed the cover image with AI to reflect his character and the music.
I am convinced that artists have a social and ecological responsibility. That's why this piece is gluten-free and vegan.
