Resonance of Remembrance

  Rachel Burckardt, piano; Ken Field, sax.
• : a setting by for a capella chorus.
• : an orchestral piece by Arturo Márquez.

• : a piece for electric guitar, orchestra and sax. As the title implies, the ascendance of the music seeks to rise above the noise and negativity that can be found in much of the social and political dialogue these days. Through the use of rising chords and melodic lines, the piece climbs up to a summit, where there can be a better perspective. The video uses photos from one of my hikes up Mount Monadnock in New Hampshire. From the mountain top, we can see the beauty of creation.
