Composer Meira Warshauer loves Mozart's Symphony No. 40, but for her it feels incomplete...so she wrote her own piece to resolve a few spiritual and musical questions. On today's show, hear the Western Piedmont Symphony play Meira Warshauer's response and tribute to Mozart: As the Waters Cover the Sea.
