Christina Pivarnik: It’s always a joy to be together! The images and music we just saw and heard are thanks to Gary Courtland-Miles—first his song called, “Love is Forever,” written and performed by him. And the second one we just heard with video, “Cosmic Cycles—An Homage to the Most High,” the music was also written and performed by him to accompany the video called “Cosmic Cycles.” He sought to describe the sounds of the creation of the universe of what is known as the Big Bang. The piece celebrates God’s magnificent creation and is a fitting beginning for our hour together sharing in the spirit of creativity and artistry.
