Reunited

Inspired by C. S. Lewis's book, Till We Have Faces, this song captures the scene where Istra reunites with Orual and relays her story of escape and transition to the palace. This piece is part of a larger collection called Fusing Canons: Melodies of Great Books by piano composer, Preston Atwood. Fusing Canons includes fifteen original piano compositions, all of which stem from inspirations (themes; characters; scenes) from timeless literature in the Western canon. The fusion of song and literature is a deliberate attempt to transform the True, Good, and Beautiful into melodies that motivate listeners to pick up a good book and let it change them. The playing level of the songs ranges between intermediate and advanced.
