| dc.description.abstract | This music composition is meant to be a narrative reflection of the mental state and the hopeful healing of those who have suffered from abuse at any age. This can be from physical abuse, mental abuse, sexual abuse, or for those who have suffered from the loss of loved ones through these acts of violence. It is also meant to be a call to awareness and action to aid those who suffer, whether those who suffer are vocal about their abuse or have “No Words.” This work is composed with the traditional musical structure of the Roman Catholic Mass, but with several interwoven reflections based on secular texts about various possible situations of abuse and loss. In this structure, I incorporated texts that deal with these painful subjects, while using the traditional religious texts to represent hopeful emotional healing. I have heightened the musical narrative through the use of traditional and nontraditional harmonic language, and orchestration techniques. | en_US |
