Svítání
Year: 2020
Duration: 6’
Instrumentation: orchestra
Program Note: Svítání, meaning “dawn” in Czech, is a musical simulation of a dark night transitioning to daybreak. Svítání opens up with suspenseful interplay between winds and piano, a tension that builds throughout and gives way to a grandiose ending, symbolizing a glorious sunrise. With the uncertain times we currently live in, the steadfastness of the rising sun is a deeply comforting phenomenon. There is little we can predict in today’s world, but the sun will indeed rise each day – one of the few dependable things in our ever-changing world. With the promise of a new day, I am filled with hope and invigorated, not only as an artist but as a human being.
