"Told through video, violin, verse and electronics, Of Power is a contemporary "coming of agency" story - Grappling with themes of resilience, resistance and the nature of power, Curtis Stewart weaves a confessional narrative, through the lens of a Black man searching for authenticity in classical music - Original compositions and virtuosic re-compositions of Charlie Parker, J.S. Bach, John Coltrane, Nicolo Paganini, Stevie Wonder, Ludwig Van Beethoven, Elektra Kurtis, Childish Gambino, Coleridge Taylor-Perkinson and Eugene Ysaye serve as vehicles for a post-classical visual album inspired by personal adversity and bolstered by the #BlackLivesMatter movement."
