Fantasia on Displacement is not merely a musical piece, but an intimate testimony to a deeply painful human moment. It was composed as the author contemplated the forced displacement of his family under the bombardment in Gaza, an attempt to approach a grief that resists all description.

Within the music, tense voices intertwine with subdued whispers, moving between sorrow, disorientation, and longing, as if searching for a lost refuge or a home that no longer exists. Each musical phrase echoes the forced march, the fatigue and fear, yet also a hidden, fragile resilience.

This fantasia does not seek to recount events, but to evoke their feeling: loss, fracture, nostalgia tinged with a faint tremor of hope. It is music of memory, of a pain that words cannot contain, and of the attempt to transform silence and lament into a language the soul can hear.
