Composer's Note: De
profundis ad lucem (out
of the depths towards
light) opens with an
atmosphere of stillness,
out of which two main
sections emerge, one
reflecting hope and the
other struggle. Hope is
expressed with a
recurring theme that
gradually layers upon
itself, imparting a
feeling of birth. This
section suddenly gives
way to struggle,
represented with loud
brass, biting accents,
and thundering timpani
figures. Following an
extended musical
landscape, these two
sections return, only in
reverse, with struggle
resolving into hope. The
work ends in tranquillity
as it began. --N.G.
