“Getting Better” was written throughout the month of May 2020, and serves as something of a journal for that time. As a consequence of the world changing so rapidly throughout those weeks, my intentions changed completely each time I sat down to write. Although it felt impossible to settle on a singular idea to explore, what remained constant was an intention to write a piece that felt close, communal, vulnerable and intimate. The resulting work reflects my attempt to override my own feelings of distance and coldness that come with virtual performance, and I hope it can provide similar comfort to the listener.
