2. SIRENS OF THE SALISH SEA: V. SIRENS OF THE SALISH SEA~Ode
JOURNEY TO SERENITY: TRACK #5
Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Anna Kislitsyna piano, Miran Vaupotic conductor
Sirens of the Salish Sea~ Orchestral Suite (in 5 movements).
V. Sirens of the Salish Sea ~Ode (to George), is the final movement of the orchestral suite Sirens of the Salish Sea. The original work, a Quintet Suite, was composed during the Spring and Summer of 2020 amidst the events taking place throughout our nation and globally and expresses the sentiments of the composer as she watched the events unfold during that momentous time in history. This piece is the composer's heartfelt emotion as she watched the events on May 25, 2020 and is a "soundtrack" of that day. It begins with a questioning sound of uncertainty leading to sirens, chaos and darkness. That all ends with silence for a few brief moments followed by lyrical, angelic music of peace and heaven. Sirens of the Salish Sea is a metaphor, a reflection of that time, expressed through music and the essence of the Sea. The Salish Sea is the body of water near Seattle where the composer lives.
