about.

Paul Mekailian’s wonderful sense of harmony and color merge together to paint a stunning picture of the struggle between light and dark. Illumination Theory is a hauntingly beautiful, yet reserved work that your ensemble is sure to love.

---

Illumination Theory is a journey of light overcoming dark. Throughout this piece, images of various different emotions interact and develop, telling a story with no characters, no words - but nevertheless, a story that can still be understood by all listeners.
