Cantus in Memoriam Benjamin Britten - Pärt

stillness, the chance to breathe with the music.

When I present this piece in Music history classes, students often have beautiful and personal responses - it seems to be a piece that many people connect to.

I would also like to hear Adams's On the Transmigration of Souls - it seems a shame that its not being performed in the city (that I know of).

I'm also interested in the juxtaposition of intense, powerful, painful (Black Angels) type music contrasting with the stillness. I think that may be cathartic for people.

Thank you for opening this up to the community.
