Trances & Visions
Joseph Bertolozzi
About this work:
Trances & Visions is an arrangement by the composer of the first movement of "The Trumpet of Salvation," a cantata for baritone, trumpet and organ commissioned by Paul Chovanec in 1999. The text is drawn from the fearsome Old Testament prophesies of the Second Book of Joel, verses 12-18. The music's dark tone suggests the utterances of a seer deep in meditation, a voice emanating from the most interior regions of the soul. As such, the piece is just as appropriate for an introspective worship service as it is for the concert stage. This accordion duo arrangement is dedicated to Geir Draugsvoll, Robert Young McMahan & Peter Thomsen.
