Contemplations on 'Guernica'

I have always been inspired by the art of Pablo Picasso, particularly his 1937 masterpiece 'Guernica'. It's an anti-war mural commenting on the violent bombing of the basque town of Guernica in Spain, around the time of the Second World War. When I look at the painting, I find myself in shock from the chaos, grief, death, pain, and horror thats prevalent in the painting, so I decided to write a piece that conveys those feelings and images. You'll hear an air-raid siren in the beginning, marking the city under attack, followed by 3 bombs exploding grotesquely. Then the 'Chaos' theme comes in, filled with its agitated pace and tonality representing the panic and horror of the civilians. This theme is followed by the 'Grief' theme, which is empty and desolate, and both themes interweave with one another. It's important to share this message of anti-war, especially in todays age where these ideas and feelings are just as important as they were nearly 80 years ago.
