A MEDITATIVE PAUSe…
My dear friend Megan Larson studied composition At Cornish College of the Arts and teaches the upright bass. I asked if she’d be willing to compose a piece about the “transcendent journey of the soul.” Several months later, she went into the studio with some fellow musicians and recorded this piece of music.
I then asked Maggie Flynn, a friend and website designer, to put Megan’s music to a video depicting the movement of the clouds. The sequence of clouds passing across an open sky reflects how our minds, absent thoughts or worries, can reveal great stillness and clarity.
Megan didn’t name the piece. Maybe to name it would be to limit the experience of it. I recommend listening to it on some good speakers.
Thank you Megan and to all the artists who collaborated with her.
