Not A Hipster - Maddy Newton

Song a Week 4: Where There's Smoke There's Fire

"Communion" - Part II of the five movement Holy Week Piano Suite ~ Maundy Thursday. A meal amongst friends that became known as the Last Supper.  Musically, I attempted to capture the love and hope that Jesus shared during this sacred meal. The theme is very melodic, almost bringing a lyrical feel to the piece.  Two moments are represented in the movement:  The sharing of the bread and wine, and the acknowledgment of Judas betraying Jesus. The minor section brings to life the Judas moment.
 
I composed this particular movement with the "take this bread, drink this cup" phrase/thought running through my head.  You can almost sing those words over the theme.
