Musically, the piece explores ambiguities both harmonically (major versus minor, dissonance versus consonance) and rhythmically (through polyrhythm and metric modulation).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComposer, Alex Stopa states, “Some time ago, I took a road trip and visited the breathtaking redwood forests of Northern California. Standing among these majestic trees, some of which are over two and a half thousand years old, was like stepping back in time. It was a deeply spiritual and moving experience. The strength and nobility of these grand, old ambassadors formed the inspiration for this work.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe grandeur of his composition will not be lost on the audience either. \u003cstrong\u003eSequoia\u003c\/strong\u003e will give the duo a means by which they can immerse and transform listeners.
