Pages is the second movement of Kindling: Small Reflections on a Limitless Faith. In this introspective song, "the words and deeds of prophetic women and men" are revealed through the pages of a newspaper. Moving forward with the patient, deliberate steps of visionary souls past and present, Pages is both heart-lifting and heart-rending, concluding with a quiet call to action for us all.
Pages may be performed as a stand alone piece, accompanied either by chamber ensemble or by piano.
