This is the eleventh movement of ?The Sacred Veil,? a twelve-movement work written with poet Tony Silvestri. ?The Sacred Veil? chronicles the rich life of Tony and his late wife Julie: their courtship, the birth of their children, Julie's diagnosis of ovarian cancer, her treatment, her struggle, and finally, her death. This movement is set with portamentos throughout to signify moans and sadness during Julie's death. |
