The piece traces themes of labor, resilience, identity, and legacy—honoring the dreams they set aside so that future generations could pursue their own. Rooted in rhythm, memory, and communication, the work reflects what it means to inherit both sacrifice and possibility– how personal and collective dreams are reshaped across generations—asking what it means to carry forward the hopes of those who came before us.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Coleman Page Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67660410749007,"sku":"TPB002-02-7085","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/f36c6dd5bcc503f674e13043af4fc675.avif?v=1791565556"},{"product_id":"mena-voces-que-siguen-coleman-page","title":"Mena: Voces Que Siguen","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/alyssa-mercedes-mena\"\u003eAlyssa Mercedes Mena (1995-)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Score \u0026amp; Set of Parts - \u003ca href=\"\/pages\/format-descriptions\"\u003eFormat guide\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003eFlute Ensemble\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWork\u003c\/strong\u003e: Voces Que Siguen (Voices That Continue)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"book-width\"\u003e8.9\u003c\/span\u003e x \u003cspan class=\"book-length\"\u003e12.0\u003c\/span\u003e inches\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eVoces Que Siguen\u003c\/em\u003e (Voice That Continue) was written in memory of the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting on June 12, 2016, in Orlando, Florida.

They continue through memory, through community, and through the ways we carry them with us. Their presence can still be felt, reflecting the universal idea that those we have lost continue to live on through us.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Coleman Page Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67660429819983,"sku":"TPB002-02-7091","price":39.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0900\/1828\/files\/8c032aa973bfa6f9b2390aa18016390f.avif?v=1791565915"},{"product_id":"mena-hasta-la-raiz-coleman-page","title":"Mena: Hasta La Raíz","description":"\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/alyssa-mercedes-mena\"\u003eAlyssa Mercedes Mena (1995-)\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong class=\"original-instrumentation-title\"\u003eInstrumentation\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003cspan class=\"original-instrumentation\"\u003eAlto Flute\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWork\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hasta La Raíz (2022)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"binding hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\u003c\/strong\u003e: \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli class=\"book-pages hidden\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages\u003c\/strong\u003e: None\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row\"\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"one-half columns\"\u003e \u003ch4\u003eDescription\u003c\/h4\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"feature_divider\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cp\u003eHasta La Raíz translates to \"Down to the Roots\".
