- Program Notes
- The term "human wall" is a reference two things:
1. the intensity of the sound created by important moments in the piece when all of the performers are playing loudly and together very forcefully.
2. moments in life when you first believe that all the odds are against you, but in time the realization comes
that the only thing standing in your way is your own self.
