Product Details


Product Description

On our life's journeys, we look for moments to pause and reflect.  In order to have these opportunities and fully immerse ourselves, we must find a quiet place, a safe haven, to do so.  Our sanctuary becomes our peaceful environment, our own time to look inward.  This solo piano work encompasses that idea with a calming presence.  The opening chords ring with anticipation of the upcoming serenity, evolving into a chiming motif pervasive throughout the work complemented with an inner-voice countermelody and supportive harmonies.  With this calming section of music, the next introduces a folk-like structure and variations of well-known church hymn melodies.  Transitions based on common tones expand the song to heightened levels unfolded into recapitulations of the bell-like motif patterns.  The song ends in an elongated, deeper sense of patience and tranquility reaching with extended plagal cadence and diminishing chime motifs fading into the distance.  You and your audience can fully immerse into this safe haven work and become whole once again.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
