RESURGENCE VOL. 2 reunites cellist Ovidiu Marinescu and pianist Carl Cranmer in a compelling collection of works that explore emotion, memory, and musical tradition.

From the passionate tango-inspired Für Evhen by Joanna Estelle to the symphonic ambition of Robert Martin’s Fragments of a Symphony, each composition tells a deeply personal story. Armando Torres’s Los Abrazados explores themes of connection and intimacy through a poignant musical embrace. Andre E. Godsey, Sr.’s Two Simple Ways to Say Thanks serves as a tribute to family and resilience, while L Peter Deutsch’s Reflections translates nature’s grandeur into evocative soundscapes. Christine Jancarz’s Love’s Light, for Sadie and Love’s Loyalty, Variations on Brandy’s Theme express devotion through lyrical, expressive melodies. The suite Royal Denizens by Alan Terricciano whimsically reimagines medieval roles through music, and Margaret Brandman’s Bossa Sonora for cello and piano blends Latin-American dance rhythms with classical sophistication.

Rich with the same inventive programming that brought its previous installment’s program to Carnegie Hall, RESURGENCE VOL. 2 is a testament to the power of music to capture profound emotions and experiences.
