Matt Park – To You, From Me
[Review]
Matt Park’s new EP, “To You, From Me”, is a collection of six delicate musical letters written by a pianist and new father. With only a single piano, the album charts a course through the wondrous and overwhelming journey of the first two months with a child, guiding the listener into a world of warmth and profound emotion.
The opening track, “A Tiny Breath,” begins the album by portraying the mystery of a new life with a transparent melody and breath-like spaces. The following piece, “An Unspoken Language,” warmly expresses the tender process of getting to know one another through a dialogue of cries and eye contact, much like an intimate conversation between the piano’s left and right hands.
“The Quiet Hour of 4 PM” paints a picture of miraculous peace, leading the album’s emotional line to a deeper place. Within this quietness, the album’s emotional pinnacle, “Two Moons, One Universe,” reveals itself. It is a declaration that the two moons, mother and father, have now begun to revolve around the one universe that is the baby, singing of this new world order with rich, heart-swelling chords.
This wondrous realization then blossoms in “Ode to Life” as a warm and hopeful melody. Its gentle keystrokes and a feeling of forward progression sing of the brilliant energy radiated by the small life that has become the center of the new world, and the pure joy its existence brings. And finally, decorating the end of the album, “And So It Begins” serves as a hopeful epilogue, declaring that this entire journey is not an end but a new beginning, leaving a deep resonance with anticipation for the infinite future ahead.
