The primary image depicted in Arlington Anthem is a scene with thousands of perfectly aligned gravesites at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia, juxtaposed with an ironically similar scene of thousands of soldiers standing stock-still at attention in rank and file. This piece is meant to honor the sacrifice of the many fallen soldiers who fought bravely throughout history, enduring trials I cannot begin to imagine, so that their countrymen might live in peace.

Duration: approximately 4 min. 45 sec.
