Nino Gvetadze: Some music stays with you your entire life – not only in your memory, but also in your hands, your ears, the way you experience the world. For me, that music began in Tbilisi, Georgia, where I was born and raised and where these sounds first took root. The journey of this album begins with the music of Nodar Gabunia – a composer, mentor and teacher who shaped my early musical voice. His musical language is deeply personal, yet unmistakably his own – full of clarity, warmth, wisdom, humor and beauty. The second half of the album gradually shifts towards the sonic world of Giya Kancheli – a close friend of Gabunia. Although he is internationally known for his symphonic works, Kancheli's music for theater and film is woven into everyday life. His melodies float through the air – subtle, poetic, melancholic and full of unspoken emotion. Recording this album felt less like performing and more like remembering. The music flowed naturally, as if something that had long been hidden in him finally found its voice. It felt like I was writing a diary in sound, a diary full of affection, gratitude and quiet moments of awe.
