On the Seven Colors of Light (2007) features seven meditations on the “Seven Last Words” of Jesus Christ from the cross. Each part of the composition is musically and spiritually connected with one of the words. !e music attempts to portray the meaning of the words, and to heighten how they sound. Often the left hand of the organ represents Christ’s body, the right hand represents his soul, and the pedals represent his breath. In many passages, the listener can observe the instrument in its search for forgiveness, hope, and light.
