about
“Closing” is a celebration of life and the transformation and creation of new resonances. The duo dulcimer and cello strings build into a joyous, almost ruckus collective finale, featuring the entire string ensemble. It’s an inevitable farewell but also a see you again— and in a way, a turning back into the stardust of which we were formed, to unite with the air and soil and the great beyond.
After all, energy cannot simply disappear, but only changes from one form to another.
