It celebrates progress over the last 35 years for LGBT equal- ity. Bom says, “If listening to this piece can move an audi- ence to both remember the past and celebrate the future, I will be pleased with the re- sult. This piece can encour- age us to feel good in com- bining our lives with others and moving forward togeth- er.
