Compassion
By Rossano Galante
00-50810
Belwin Concert String Orchestra
Grade: 3
Compassion, by Rossano Galante, sets the tone for love and loss. Written in memory of Bryan T. Doll Jr., a 14-year-old boy who lost his life. The introduction incorporates a gentle string passage featuring a chordal and cerebral texture. The violins state the main theme, accompanied by lush string harmony. The accompaniment becomes rhythmically busier as the piece develops, incorporating arpeggiations and ostinati. After reaching its climax, the composition concludes just as it began, with quiet and chordal strings, bringing this musical offering to an emotional close. This composition was written to draw attention to and raise awareness about bullying in school. (4:30)
