00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:11.500
I would like to write music that is a signal

00:00:11.500 --> 00:00:14.160
of my love for humanity and for my audiences.

00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:17.940
So I try to write music that uplifts and educates,

00:00:17.940 --> 00:00:22.179
but also soothes people and makes them feel loved

00:00:22.179 --> 00:00:24.339
and makes them feel that the world is in fact

00:00:24.339 --> 00:00:26.160
going to be a better place than it sometimes

00:00:26.160 --> 00:00:29.239
seems. The way I try to describe my music, my

00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:32.119
shorthand for it is it's an act of love, an act

00:00:32.119 --> 00:00:35.079
of honor and respect and love for my audiences.

00:00:37.039 --> 00:00:40.659
I would just like to think that my music points

00:00:40.659 --> 00:00:44.740
a way forward for people, that I can bridge the

00:00:44.740 --> 00:00:48.079
gap between a more distant past and a future

00:00:48.079 --> 00:00:51.399
that speaks to, you know, generations to come.

00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:55.719
From 19 tiny piano miniatures to a boundless

00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:58.479
world of music, poetry, collaboration, and film,

00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:01.939
composer Stefania DeKennessey's micro -bits is

00:01:01.939 --> 00:01:04.739
unlike anything else. In our upcoming episode,

00:01:04.980 --> 00:01:07.519
Stefania shares how these small pieces became

00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:10.620
her most expansive and personal project, brought

00:01:10.620 --> 00:01:12.819
to life through powerful collaborations across

00:01:12.819 --> 00:01:16.340
instruments, voices, and ensembles. Don't miss
