“The Forest After the Rain” was written under the inspiration of the frequent warm rains that have recently fallen in Estonia. When I ride horses, I often go outside the city, to a farm, in a field and a forest, where there is a lot of greenery, birds and insects. Often during these walks in nature it starts to rain, hundreds of plants begin to smell fragrant, watered with fresh water, the smell of the earth becomes stronger. Birdsong sounds somehow special in the post-rain forest – their melodies somehow begin to resonate in a new way and echo from the moistened petals and needles. The post-rain forest is on the one hand relaxed, on the other – filled with energy, and charged, it comes to life with a new life, a new cycle begins in nature, many processes are activated. It is great to walk and observe all these changes in it.
