              <text>Black composer, conductor, songwriter, pianist and communiity facilitator, Ahmed Alabaca wrote "The Crown Suite" during the Covid-19 pandemic. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Alabaca included the following description on their website: "A musical journey reflecting the emotional and physical weight of living through a global pandemic. What is the Crown Suite? When Los Angeles enforced stay at home orders, composer Ahmed Alabaca decided to compose a piece for a different instrument every day of the order. Ahmed asked Facebook what instruments should they write for and like that a 40+ list was formed. Initially the decision was for the sole purpose to stay busy and creative, but then Ahmed got to thinking 'This would be a great way to showcase not only my music, but also showcase all the Black and Brown musicians that are out there, along with educating communities on all the different instruments that exist'." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.
