ABOUT THE MUSIC:
This arrangement is split into four ideas all linked together generationally. The first verse is meant to symbolize a departed parent comforting their grown Child from the great beyond. To be more specific, the parent is singing this lullaby to their Child in a dream. I felt the Latin word “Lux” (Light) was an appropriate fit for the imagery of sunlight and heavenly light.
The second verse represents the grown Child waking up from the dream (first verse). This verse is meant to be bitterSweet rather than strictly sad or angry. While there is grieving, the melody imparts comfort through nostalgia and memories. When the second verse gloriously blooms into the third, this represents everlasting love shining through even the darkest of times. Although gone, one will live in the heart and memory of another forever.
Finally, the reiteration of the first verse represents the grown Child singing the same lullaby to their own baby, impartin... less

"Vivida In Tempore" - Joshua B. Himes
Poem by Filippo Sirotti (b.1967)
In the time that doesn't want to pass,
in my heart I feel a strength
that pushes me to say: "us"
And when the sun has gone,
I look for you in the sky among the other stars.
As my soul is with you in the Sweet n... morePoem by Filippo Sirotti (b.1967)
In the time that doesn't want to pass,
in my heart I feel a strength
that pushes me to say: "us"
And when the sun has gone,
I look for you in the sky among the other stars.
As my soul is with you in the Sweet night,
and feels happy waiting for you,
because nowhere is far.
Recorded by Matthew Curtis (ChoralTracks).

The text is from Robert Louis Stevenson’s 1885 A Child’s Garden of Verses. The choir begins by emulating the sound of the wind, and then sings directly to the wind, describing the many things the wind does while questioning just who or what the wind is. The piece, inspired by Kodály’s philosophy, develops a folk-like melody in a modern context. The rhythmic piano accompaniment keeps the piece bouncing brightly until its exciting conclusion. Premiere performance by the 2016 OAKE National Children's Choir, Elizabeth Núñez, director.
The Wind
by Robert Louis Stevenson
I saw you toss the kites on high
And blow the birds about the sky;
And all around I heard you pass,
Like ladies' skirts across the grass—
O wind, a-blowing all day long,
O wind, that sings so loud a song!
I saw the different things you did,
But always you yourself you hid.
I felt you... less
