About the Work (approx. duration 4:50 mins.)
We are all stars, we are to illuminate and be illuminated by those around us. This piece will always remain in my heart because it has been the result of the commission of very luminous people who have given me warmth while I was recovering from a hard setback of health.
This work is the adventure of mutual support. We are lighting our way, but the neighboring stars -those people who are our loved ones on any plane of existence- create and guide that way with more light than we are capable of perceiving.
Spanish
Y la tiniebla del ocaso desvanece cuando la luz de los ancestros forma un manto que protege y guía.
Un ser iluminando las galaxias
La certeza en el camino del náufrago El fulgor de la existencia, el tiempo y la distancia.
La aurora ancestral de luz dorada en el despertar del alba. los ojos radiantes de certezas condensados en rayos luminosos.
El eterno fulgor del alma: un instante de infinitas distancias y el amanecer de millones de albas.
About the Composer
English
And the shadow of twilight fades when the light of the ancestors forms a mantle that protects and guides us.
A being illuminating the galaxies
The certainty on the shipwrecked path
The glint of existence, time and distance.
The ancient aurora of golden light at the awakening of the dawn the eyes radiant with certainties condensed into rays of light.
The eternal radiance of the soul: an instant of infinite distances and the birth of a million dawns.
Santiago's music "It provided a powerful high point of tension in our concert and one could tell the audience was engaged in its drama" (Elektra Women's Choir). His compositions are performed all over the world, and he frequently makes world tours giving concerts and clinics. His pieces have been part of festivals as well as ACDA conferences. Santiago is famous for making composer-in-residence visits to colleges and universities to share his knowledge and create memorable experiences. His charismatic character and his endearing community spirit are embodied in each of his pieces. As a full-time composer, he shares a large number of works written in collaboration with the renowned poet Charles Anthony Silvestri. Likewise, he supports other composers by making collaborations and guiding us in their professional careers. His community spirit has led him to join large choirs to compose in his favorite format, the consortium. For more information, please visit santiagoveros.site
