Funny, also, that after this work I delved deeply into consonant Minimalism and begin a diverse stylistic journey which has resulted in my own personal musical voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut I can still see fingerprints in this work that follow me to this day…\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— Aaron Jay Kernis\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"G.
