She Was Dancing

Audio demo (generated by Sibelius)
SSA / piano
Text by Reginald Unterseher

This piece comes from a dream image. We see a dancing woman, alone at first, spinning with her arms spread wide. Her children join in under the starry sky. She begins to rise, and our eyes are drawn up, following her. Her twirling hair becomes the spiral galaxies, and the dance becomes the movement of the stars, all woven together. The piece is about a woman, it is about women, it is about Woman, it is about joy.
