This piece was written by seeing the journey of the wise men. |
|
The opening note on the piano is the Star of Bethlehem. |
|
The shimmering is our trip down from the Star to the sands that are lit by the midnight sky. |
|
The first melody of music is the first camel as it slowly passes by. |
|
When the melody begins to harmonize with itself, we see the second camel pass. |
|
The third and final camel begins the majority of the piece. |
|
In the faces of the wise men we see weariness driven by faith. |
|
The gifts they are bearing are ones of request and honor. |
|
The music slows to reveal, over the last hill of sand, the little town of Bethlehem, the end of their journey and the beginning of hope. |
