Birth of a Rhythm

This is a magnificent piece created by Elizabeth Caesar. The piece will come to you on 13" X 19" glossy poster paper. Elizabeth skillfully creates her pieces and then has them digitally copied in order to make these prints accessible to everyone. This particular piece has a lot of symbolism throughout the piece that educated pan people will be able to pick up on and appreciate. There is also a poem by Elizabeth on this work. The poem reads:

Born out of Steel
Born out of fire and Pain
Tears that wash the cold metal bear a never-ending sweet refrain
Tis Music of Joy
Tis Music to Inspire
The energy that is imprinted on the notes,
exudes rhythms of a time past, and the future to come
Tis Music of Hope
Tis Music of a love that grips us in a tight embrace,
enveloping our very being with rapture,
till our heartbeat and the rhythm of the mallets
gliding over the notes are one.
To some the rapture gives way to Dance
To some the rapture brings tears of Joy
To some the rapture brings praises to the Almighty with the expression...
"God this music Sweet!"
To some the rapture takes away all thought,
so words are lost,
replaced only by pure Bliss
Such is the power of Pan!
Surrender and experience the pleasure of the Steelband...
