From the composer: "This Is Growth" is my imagination of the transition from life to whatever lies beyond. The piece begins with a mournful, intimate tone, capturing the weight of saying goodbye to a loved one. As it progresses, thick strings, pipe organ, and woodwinds swirl together, building into an epic crescendo that seeks to evoke the unimaginable: that moment of awe in transcendence itself. I hope it helps us embrace the mystery of life as passing onward rather than simply passing away.

From the composer: "Dios Más Grande" is a reflection on the greater force that connects us all. Its title, which translates to God Is Greater, emerged during a moment of reflection when asking the universe for guidance in uncertain times. Paired conceptually with "Ode to the Breach," this piece moves beyond disarray, evoking the awe and majesty of a divine presence that exists above the noise.

From the composer: “Slowly Revealing” began as a solo piano piece, “Revealing,” inspired by the idea of meeting God or experiencing an awakening. This orchestral version reflects the meditative process of reaching that moment, with each layer unfolding gradually, as if drawing closer to a deeper understanding or presence.

From the composer: "Flow Thy Rocks" is inspired by the story of water flowing from a rock in the desert—a moment of divine provision and transformation. Written as a meditation, the piece reflects on how we can turn times of trial into sources of healing and sustenance. With rhythms and melodies that evoke both the arid stillness of the desert and the life-giving surge of flowing water, it is a tribute to the unexpected abundance that can emerge from trials of faith and perseverance. I've created this piece as a birthday present for my best friend. Happy birthday, Jami.

From the composer: "More Than We See" is a piece I composed during a trip through the Adirondacks, inspired by the stunning views of lakes nestled at the foot of towering mountains. The sense of mystery and the way nature's elements fit together influenced this composition, which unfolds in vignettes that blend into a unified whole, much like nature itself.

From the composer: The song is meant as a reassuring note-to-self, available to read whenever your feelings set off alarm bells. The note is a reminder that your feelings are not a danger.
