The track is just one of many from &#8216;Music 27&#8217;, which centres on hope, revealing the light that is always to be found, despite the darkness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kristina Kub\u00edkov\u00e1 is currently completing her PhD in linguistics, which sees her exploring the deep relationship between music and language.
