Dorian's Journey
Non-returnable
$60.00
The Greek mode Dorian has a lot of historical attributes, connecting with the Doric tribes and even with Helen of Troy. I have always found music in the Dorian mode to be very pleasing, even before I knew what it was; it has uniquely attractive qualities and shows up in diverse music traditions from all around the world. Dorian can also be a name for a person. In this composition, I have imagined Dorian to be the protagonist on a hero’s journey. The music creates a narrative of our main character Dorian growing up, going on a grand adventure, and finally returning home, enriched by so many experiences.
