Luna for Wind Duet (2023) is a musical piece inspired by the quote, "In a Sisyphean task, the Moon chases the Sun cursed with the knowledge that they may never share the same sky." The piece explores the theme of longing and separation through the use of canon. In this technique, one voice repeats the melody of another at a different time and is used to impose the idea of a chase in this piece. Initially conceived as a piece for Flute and Euphonium, the piece can be performed by any two wind instruments. The piece has Four short movements, each with a different temporal and tonal distance between the soloists. Sometimes they are almost in sync but with a slight mismatch; sometimes, they are far apart but with occasional moments of convergence. The piece begins and ends with a piano playing a simple planing pattern, representing the eternal cycle of the sun and the moon.
