Dreams Unseen - Peter Meechan
A number of traumatic global events over the past year have tested humanity. The global pandemic, racism, human rights issues, the discovery of thousands of unmarked Canadian Indigenous children's graves and climate change are testing humans' willingness to listen, hope and seek change. This three-movement work is a journey through silence, resistance and hope.Dreams Unseen begs the question, "Are we listening?"As people around the world endure and cope with significant loss, isolation, uncertainty and fear, Dreams Unseen contemplates the journey through uncertain times and is fraught with the complexities of today. As we continue to endure loss and uncertainty, we must have faith in resilience, goodwill and hope for a brighter future.Jacquie Dawson, August 2021Note from the composerWhen composing Dreams Unseen I was faced with a variety of decisions and complexities. Initially commissioned with the idea of conveying joy and hope as we emerged, or hoped to emerge, from a pandemic, too much happened around us in the world - locally, globally, and personally - that made the initial goal of the piece something that didn't represent so much that I saw.This made the selection of texts particularly difficult.As time passed, the texts originally selected became less and less appropriate to what I wanted to say, and, as the unmarked graves of murdered Indigenous children were uncovered throughout Canada on a daily basis, I felt compelled to move away from joy and the promise of hope to instead write about listening, to put hope in a more fragile, truthful context, to be grateful for those who never gave up, those who stood up in the face of all that was happening - the scientists, the leaders, people we've never met, people we know. It felt that the only way I could say all that I wanted to say as a composer was to write my own words.The first movement, In Silence, I ask us not to just hear, but to listen. It is only once we understand the truth that we can truly begin the process of reconciliation. The second movement, In Resistance, is my amazement at those who stood up in these times of adversity - specifically the scientists who saved our lives and those who continue to fight for what it right in the face of a seemingly impossible situation. I continue to believe that, because of those people, love will win, and lyrically I wanted to pay homage to that; The Beatles "In My Life" and Dr. King's "I Have A Dream" speech are both referenced.The final movement, In Hope, also takes existing words as an inspiration. The Rodgers and Hammerstein song "You'll Never Walk Alone" has been a song so close to my heart throughout my life, in the good times and difficult times alike. None of these times have been more difficult than losing a friend during the pandemic. His fight with cancer was driven by hope. A wonderful musician and human, he would also turn to "You'll Never Walk Alone" - so I chose this final movement to pay homage to the song, to my dearly missed friend, and to the idea that hope - for a better future, for a win against an almost unstoppable disease, for those whose voice is so often not heard to be listened to, and that Dr. King's words will come true - is everything.Pete Meechan, August 2021With funds from:Desautels Faculty of Music at the University of Manitoba - Jacquie Dawson, Director of BandsUniversity of Kansas - Paul Popiel, Director of BandsAnd the following commissioning partners:Arizona State University - Jason Caslor, Director of BandsGeorgia State University - Robert Ambrose, Director of BandsMarietta College - Nils Landsberg, Director of BandsNew Mexico State University - Michael Mapp, Director of BandsOregon State University - Erik Leung, Director of BandsThe Desert Winds - Charles Maguire, Artistic DirectorUniversity of Colorado Boulder - Donald McKinney, Director of BandsUniversity of Missouri - Brian Silvey, Director of Bands, and Amy Knopps, Associate Director of BandsUniversity of North Florida - Erin Bodnar, Director of BandsUniversity of Texas - Jerry Junkin, Director of BandsUniversity of Toronto - Gillian Mackay, Director of Winds ConductingValdosta State University - Ben Harper, Director of BandsWright State University - Shelley Jagow, Director of Bands

Soul Divine - Peter Meechan
From the Gelinas family:"David Gelinas was a grade 10 student at Dr. Martin LeBoldus Catholic High School in Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada. On May 2, 1992, he was tragically killed in a car accident. David was an accomplishedtenor saxophone playerand member of the LeBoldus Concert Band, multiple Jazz Bands and the Regina Lions Junior Band. He dreamt of a future in music at McGill University.In the 25 years since his death, David's family and friends have embraced life, the importance of family, and a love of music. This piece is dedicated to the memory our son, brother, uncle, student, and friend, David Gelinas. Always in our hearts and minds, David's love of music plays on."Chad Huel, Director of Bands at LeBoldus Catholic High School, Regina, Saskatchewan, approached me to write a new work for the school's symphonic band in memory of his friend, David Gelinas. Chad spoke of his friend's love of music and life, the time they spent together, his skills as a tenor saxophonist, and how his life was cut so tragically short.Before writing this piece, I was reading the William Blake poem Auguries of Innocence. Contained in that poem were the following words, which seemed so beautifully poignant and appropriate, and hopefully encapsulates something about grief, as well as celebration of life."Joy & Woe are woven fineA Clothing for the soul divineUnder every grief & pineRuns a joy with silken twine"Soul Divine is dedicated to Chad Huel and the Gelinas family, in memory of David Gelinas.
