Caritas - 3 Majestic by Michael Burritt

Caritas (1991) means love in Latin and is dedicated to my daughters Jennifer and Kelsey. Kelsey was just born and Jennifer was 3 at the time. I was inspired to express, through my music, the profound love a parent feels for their children.
Caritas was written more than 30 years ago in my early years of composing. I am continually amazed at the many people from around the world who perform and enjoy this piece that I wrote as a gift to my little girls. I thought it was time for me to put out my own video of Caritas. I hope you enjoy!
Thank you to everyone who has performed or worked on Caritas over the years. It is a great blessing to have people enjoy your music.

This piece has always been such an inspiration for me, and I recently composed a marimba solo for my own daughter when she was born. Your student, Dr. Blake Tyson, was my percussion/composition professor at UCA. Thank you for sharing this incredible performance!
