> In the pages of Alexis, or the Treatise of Vain Struggle, the late Marguerite Yourcenar writes: “Music carries me into a world where pain does not cease to exist, but is widened, stilled, made at once calmer and deeper, like a torrent turning into a lake.” These words come unbidden when listening to Meissner’s compositions. There is pain, yes, but not despair. There is struggle, but also illumination. His music touches something elemental. It reaches the quiet corners of the soul and brings back not answers, but better questions.<
