“What if you could live an entire existence in the moment of a first kiss?”. (Karl Hugo)
Launched on the International Kissing Day, July 6, Endless First Kiss is an ardent piano and cello duet composed and performed by Karl Hugo. It is a passionate sequel to Your Last Kiss, which was created for figure skating champion Shoma Uno.
“Everyone has a great need for love these days and that’s why I created for you this music video”. (Karl Hugo)
Karl Hugo chose to rearrange his composition Romantika and re-record it with the participation of passionate musicians of a string orchestra. Renamed Romantika Amo for the occasion, Karl, as usual, directed and edited this video which has both a modern style and a romantic sensibility.
In this music video, Karl Hugo performs Your Last Kiss which he composed for the latest free program of Japanese champion Shoma Uno. The program is based on the concept of choreographer David Wilson and Karl’s partner in figure skating music, music designer Hugo Chouinard.
“Every time you kiss the person you love, it may be your last, so give it your all as if it were the last time, and you will savor an unforgettable moment of grace that will seem to last a lifetime”. (Karl Hugo)
Loneliness affects everyone, whether you are single or not. To illustrate this, Karl Hugo joined forces with The Voice of China sensation Junshu Zheng, Chinese ice dance champions Shiyue Wang & Xinyu Liu as well as the renowned Canadian choreographer Marie-France Dubreuil.
“I wrote I Feel Lonely especially for this collaborative project in order to have the pleasure of creating a unique work. I find that Junshu Zheng delivers a performance that is both moving and grandiose, making I Feel Lonely a universal and timeless song”. (Karl Hugo)
Please, don’t miss the full credits and thanks at the end.
“MY SWEET LOVE! It is not because a vast ocean separates us that I will forget the depth of your tender gaze. It is not because modernity screams louder than my inner voice that I will forget the warm breath of the murmurs of your heart. It is not because the hourglass of time is flowing away at all speed that I will forget the feeling of eternity that your joy of love gives me. So it is not because all the pretexts of the world try to separate us, to tear us apart that one day I will not find you to take you in my arms and cherish you forever”. (Karl Hugo)
