Hello, If you have noticed recently on social media that Daniel Elder has been barred from publishing his music on GIA due to a social media post, and you're like me and think that opinions should not close the gate to free expression. Please consider signing onto this petition.

No artist, regardless of how perceptively obtuse their opinion to society, should be censored by opinion. 

I Love Ballad to the moon, and heart's reflection. Should we condemn someone by their opinions, when they craft such beauty? All you choral directors, think of one of his pieces in your mind.

Is that someone who wants to halt human love? the spirit of generosity? 

I don't think so. I think people judged too quickly, and assumed too much and did not give just reason for their actions.

Give this artist the chance to spread more beauty in the world. We make mistakes perhaps, but let beauty reign, and wounds heal.
