DESCRIPTION:

Prayer for a Damaged World for Bass Flute and Piano by Jonathan Cohen

Duration: 2:30

Scored for bass and contrabass flute (or any flute pitched in C) and piano.

Prayer for a Damaged World is, above all a very beautiful and innocent melody for bass flute, supported by a gentle piano accompaniment – neither of which is technically demanding.  This is an intimate soliloquy of shared pain, acknowledgment, and hope. The piece begins in a quiet minor, slowly building in intensity and register, reaching a point of peace, then resolving in major key and a feeling of hope.

The composer was inspired to write this piece by the circumstances around the pandemic and the many other worrisome aspects of the world’s state.
