A video honoring the lives lost at the Oklahoma City attack, 9/11, Columbine, and the Challenger & Columbia shuttle disasters. I personally shot all the video you see from the Oklahoma City Bombing Memorial and all the other images were found on the internet. This slideshow was shown while Frank Ticheli’s “An American Elegy” was played live by the Putnam City North High School Band in the Spring of 2005. This piece was written exclusively for Columbine, you can read that in the composer’s notes…but being from Oklahoma City myself and constructing this video shortly after the Columbia disaster…I felt compelled to make this a truly AMERICAN elegy honoring all lives lost. Thank you to everyone for your kind comments. If anyone else would like to use this video as a background slideshow to a live performance, I’d be happy to provide you a full copy of the original.
