Justification: A controversial, 21st century piece of music that involves
the entire performing arts department at a high school. Af band, a
choir, a technology crew, and 5 dramatic speakers. It may not be
appropriate for all communities as the content is quite descriptive, and
I would not program this piece often, but it one of my favourites. A
powerful message brought to peoples attention through this piece of
music!
