Calling Blue (overture) by Inori Minase – Lyric Review

Inori Minase’s “Calling Blue (overture)” serves not as a standalone story but as a pre-chapter leading directly into “Turquoise.” The “blue” in its title symbolizes tranquility, vastness, and the stillness of the heart before movement. While Turquoise unfolds as a full journey filled with motion and imagery, Calling Blue functions as the threshold—the invocation that awakens potential. Rather than resolution, it embodies anticipation: the breath before exhale, the ripple before a wave. Together, the two tracks form a diptych of call and voyage, overture and symphony.
