"As the title suggests, the music reflects feelings and changes of our minds under the pressure of the Covid-19 virus pandemic. It is about us, about our human relations, about the world forced by the virus to its knees, with consequences we cannot even see and understand at this moment. There is another, less obvious meaning in the title. If the dash between numbers 20 is changed to minus, it equals 0. When you abbreviate Altered Mind of 20-20, you get AM and 20 minus 20 = 0. Is civilisation at the dawn of a new era? Zero dawn? A new world? Starting from scratch - 0?" "The music of Altered Mind of 20-20 is quite dark, as I went through a process of my own personal hard times and anxiety during the Covid-19 crisis. Later I started to see more and more beautiful human gestures around the globe full of love, empathy, and understanding, as we are all in it together. I felt such hope in us! I saw a light far away in the tunnel, and I felt inspired and compelled to write a second part of Altered Mind of 20-20.
I hope to orchestrate both parts very soon." - Elia Cmiral
