Transcendental Souls Sextet, Anthony Elia Jul 2016

Transcendental Souls Sextet, Anthony Elia

Bridwell Library Research

The Transcendental Souls Sextet is a wandering through the spiritual realm, where the sounds of each instrument are meant to embody the migratory nature of the soul (as reflected in different kinds of mysticism), searching and experiencing the world and that which may be beyond. It is meant to convey a sense of both restlessness and the experience of contentedness set in tension with one another. To be played at a somewhat faster pace, but not too fast, as well as with power and conviction. App. 12:42 (no repeats) or 14:35 (with repeats).
