Description:
Idealism; humanity; world peace; and altruism; have been recurring themes and inspirations in many compositions by Eric Ewazen. In 2007; the Sejong Soloists commissioned this work for Cello and Strings to feature Paula Zahn as guest soloist - the celebrated telejournalist is an exceptional cellist and a frequent and distinguished host for the concerts Sejong performs in New York City. The work was written for a gala concert honoring Ban Ki-Moon; Secretary General of the United Nations; and therefore the ultimate leader of international peacekeeping efforts. The resulting work; equally suitable for Cello and Piano; is appropriately titled A Poem of Hope.
