“Quiescence Suite”

My inspiration for this piece comes from the actual action of the virus. From the virus sticking, to the line-ups that have been caused by it, to the actual fruition of vaccine coming through and the feeling of hope that it brings. This suite will contain these events, along with the musicians exploring the feeling of upheaval, stress, calmness, and stillness from the actions that this virus has caused especially in relation to the activism that has risen from it in USA and as well in Canada.
