Lennart Östman Thank you so much Lennart! 🙏🏼 I really wanted the melodies to sing out like vocal lines in the mourning, as well as in the united and uplifting second movement. I’m so grateful you enjoyed the piece!

Great emotionally driven "story" musically told. Maybe not as dark and dramatic as the theme - Covid - was and is for me in real life, but still it did have lots of hope in the music, which is important.

Thank you so much for listening and for your thoughts on the piece. That’s a great observation and I agree. I chose to underscore the sadness and longing in the first movement as the tribute. I definitely wanted the second movement to instill hope as we experience renewed connection with one another, and am glad that quality came through in the music. Thank you so much again for listening! I truly appreciate it!
