Program Notes

Closure is a wonderful feeling to have: to know that one can be in peace with their inner self, someone else, or even a situation that has transpired. While there may still be some questions about certain aspects, the situation as a whole feels settled. This piece illustrates that idea of being in peace, maybe with some questions, and just knowing that everything is okay now. It is in a way a meditation on the concept of closure.
