	A progressive rock composition dedicated to the memory of Niv Miles, who tragically lost his life at the age of 14. Part 1 is dedicated to his life and growth.
	Story Behind the Song Niv Miles was a sweet, brilliant child, who happily grew up with his mother in Ashdod, Israel. When he was about 14 years old, he made a tragic mistake. He lost his keys and therefore tried to enter his apartment from the roof of an 8-floors building, using a rope he tied up to an antenna. The rope couldn't hold his weight, and he fell all the way to the ground. He died on the way to the hospital, leaving his family along with a very large circle of friends in a major shock. Although I was not part of his family or his close circle of friends, I had the pleasure of knowing Niv for the last two years of his life, and consequently, an equal sense of pain and loss following his death. I started to compose "Until We Meet Again" a few months before the accident, and it was supposed to be a "normal" rock creation evolving towards a "happy end". At the funeral of Niv, the worst day of my life, a new song was born in my mind. I couldn't help hearing these phrases nor could I ignore the musical fact that this has be the end of my new composition. I remember family members and friends reading poems on Niv's grave, trying to express their pain and honor his memory. "Until We Meet Again" is my humble contribution to this effort. The name has been chosen to leave some sort of hope, although irrational, in the heart of those of us who ever experienced or witnessed such a tragic loss. Part 1 has been composed while Niv was still alive, therefore it is dedicated to his life and growth. Part 2 has been composed following the accident and during the funeral, therefore it is dedicated to Niv's memory. Lyrics Although the vocal track is finished, so far I couldn't come up with any lyrics that might reflect the same level of emotions as the music does. So the lyrics are still waiting and that's why the vocals are synthetic.
