The third movement of Pederson’s powerful five movement work, A Vision Unfolding. This beautiful piece explores aspects of identity and inclusion and invites us to lay down our judgements of others. Musically, the piece reads as a blend of styles— pop ballad meets lovely choral, and will immediately resonate with choirs and listeners.
We all sense our communities becoming more fractured; we witness individual relationships fraying in our neighborhoods, schools, churches, places of work, and even our families. One of the root causes of this is how quick we are to judge others—and hold others in contempt—for their politics, their religion, gender or sexual expression, skin color, class, education level, and a host of other characteristics. This piece is an invitation to lay down our judgments. It is also an invitation to see those aspects of identity that are important to people...but to see people around us as more than just a collection of isolated characteristics...to see all of them.
