Clara's Opus



Clara's Opus
If you'd like to listen to Clara's performance I made a little playlist for inspiration.  Here is the breakdown for what Clara's music is supposed to represent.
 

"I started with something evocative, simple and full of wonder and a bit disorientation"

This represents Clara when she died

"Then I moved into a modern variation of Debussy’s Moonlight Sonata, as a wink to my family."
This was one of the first songs in Litany Lane

I followed with a piece filled with the cold uncertainty of death,
(This describes her getting used to being dead and Fierro's  cold demeanor.)

Then a personal favorite Yiruma. Something that felt like discovery, like new love but slightly ominous.
This reflects those chapters when they leave Litany Lane and get all flirty flirty by early LiLe standards

 Then another upbeat melody . . . something slightly flirty . . .like a first kiss.
(Clara and Fierro first kiss at the end of Litany Lane)

 Then I ended with Einaudi. A favorite of mine. A beautiful open ended close.
(Which is how things ended, but then somehow I wrote a bunch of sequels.)
This just reminds me of Clara

Chapter 12 re-cap

Clara lands the biggest performance of her life, while Fierro takes a bit of a world traveling detour.  Just when Clara thinks to much separates them she runs into Mr. Fierro in her apartment, right in the middle of her date. After spending the night together, but the morning doesn't go so well leaving them in an uncertain circumstance.
