Very proud of my student Adam who is thriving at Sarasota Music Conservatory under the instruction of Agnes Paltorak-Lewis.

Do you hear the far music?

It is the music of the spirit, heart and soul that lies deep within us. A sleeping beauty that dwells below the surface of mean experience.

Perhaps it can only be heard when we are very young, or during that graceful period within which we have not known great and abiding sorrow. During those years of optimistic searching when the days of life were new, and sinew and blood and bone worked together in that admirable way, so peculiar to youth.

It is a cry from beyond the horizon and, like the horizon, recedes by necessity as we press forever toward it.

Do you hear the far music?

This is one of my favorite moments from the “River Concert” in August, 2021. In this clip, you can hear the very last section of Franz Liszt’s Funerailles.

Liszt wrote this piece as an elegy for his friends that were killed in the Hungarian Revolution of 1848. His extensive use of chromatacism and thematic development captures the tragedy of the failed uprising. These themes reach their culmination in the finale, where Liszt juxtaposes different motives to create a powerful image. One might even picture warriors who, knowing the battle is already lost, nevertheless decide to charge forth bravely into the fray.
