Morphology
The meaning 'to fill a space and be clearly heard throughout' is directly and compositionally derived from 'resonate' (emit deep echoing vibration) combined with 'through' (across the whole distance). This is a literal propagation pattern common across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can readily infer the MWE meaning.
Etymology
Resonate through gives a simple picture: imagine a bell that rings and the sound, to resonate, moves through the house or valley and reaches every corner. So, to resonate through means 'to fill a place and be clearly heard or felt everywhere'.
