about

“Sentient Dissolution” explores the possibility of human life fading from this planet. Some hypothesize that we will become a spacefaring species in the near future, beginning with colonies on the moon and on Mars. Some think we will cause our own extinction through our acceleration of planetary warming. Returning to the 7-string guitar, this movement most closely resembles the music of groove-metal and metalcore bands like Unearth and Lamb of God. Its form is based on the Concerto Rondo form often employed by Mozart for third movements of concerti, though, again, the key areas do not strictly follow this form. The tuba part presents some of the more virtuosic challenges of the piece and is again influenced heavily by the John Williams concerto. However, the end of the movement fades into obscurity instead of strictly repeating the “A” section of the form again, symbolizing either the extinction of humanity or our escape to the stars.
