I'm not sure what you're saying. I'm not a religious person. The Divine Comedy deals with the concepts of Heaven and Hell. The post has to do with the piece of music in the video and how it relates to the poem.

I was in college when this movement was published. Our wind ensemble world premiered the entire Divine Comedy under the direction of Robert W. Smith at the South Carolina state music educators conference. It was as enjoyable to listen to his thinking and direction from the podium as it was to play the entire suite.

Our band is playing Paridiso this year. As a tenor sax player, the sixtuplet passages are incredibly fun to be play, and when played correctly, an amazing addition to the brass' power. The Divine Comedy is by far one of my favorite shows. Very powerful.

Smith wrote The Ascension after the other three, meaning he brought the melody beginning at 3:00 and made it the main motif of the Ascension. So Paradiso isn't a call-back, Ascension is a call-forward.

i know i'm still learning about composers and all, but i never really was a fan of Robert W. Smith until I came across these songs, I would have never guessed that he of all people would have written these 4 movements. unbelievable the things we are able to accomplish through sheer inspiration, and I can tell that he was inspired, bound, and determined to write these songs.
