Journey of the Heart

鄧尼斯-亞歷山大（Dennis Alexander）受明尼蘇達州瓦魯德的雙夏普音樂俱樂部（Double Sharp Music Club of Warroad）之托，創作了這首鋼琴獨奏曲，以紀念凱蒂-喬-奧拉夫松（Katie Jo Olafson）。2000 年 10 月 2 日，16 歲的凱蒂因車禍受傷，在 Warroad 高中讀二年級時失去了生命。凱蒂熱愛音樂，只要路過鋼琴，她就會停下來彈奏。她參加過鋼琴比賽，無論是獨奏還是二重奏，她總是獲得最高分。這首早期高級獨奏曲是按照凱蒂的朋友們目前彈奏的水準編寫的，也是凱蒂喜歡的風格。凱蒂的朋友和家人用音樂來説明他們療傷。我們希望這首歌頌凱蒂一生的獨奏曲也能給他們帶來慰藉"

原文簡介:
Dennis Alexander was commissioned by the Double Sharp Music Club of Warroad, MN to write this piano solo in memory of Katie Jo Olafson. Katie was a 16-year-old sophomore at Warroad High School when she lost her life on October 2, 2000 after suffering injuries in an automobile accident. Katie loved music and couldn't walk by a piano without stopping to play it. She participated in piano competitions, playing both solos and duets, and always earned the highest marks. This early advanced solo is written at the level that Katie's friends are currently playing and is in the style that Katie liked to play. Katie's friends and family have used music to help them with the healing process. It is our hope that this solo celebrating Katie's life will bring them solace as well.
