Well done, and thank you BUMC!! This is a beautiful, moving, and poignant piece. It testifies to the sadness and longing that we can feel in the midst of suffering, and yet the hope in God that lingers and alone sustains us. I have learned that the music was inspired by a text written by a Jewish individual hiding during World War II, and found scratched on the wall of a cellar in Cologne, Germany. A description of the piece, “The composition begins in stillness, reflecting the profound depth of the words. It gradually builds to a dramatic climax on the phrase "I believe in love," embodying the intense and conflicting emotions of holding onto to it in difficult times. The piece then fades into a more contemplative ending, culminating in a serene acceptance of faith in God, even amidst silence.”
Beautiful! 😭❤
