Satie/Rain: "As dawn breaks,” #1 (Summer) Ottawa Four Seasons Suite (sung by Matthew Curtis)
Erik Satie's Sarabande No. 1 is one of my favourite piano pieces. For a long time, I felt there was an a cappella choral piece hiding within it, in plain sight. One day I got inspired and gave it a try.

Several months later, I applied to be a participant at one of the Vancouver Chamber Choir's Interplay workshops funded by the SOCAN Foundation and to my delight I was accepted.
"As dawn breaks" was one of the pieces that this amazing choir sight read for me on the spot. VCC director Jon Washburn and choir members then provided me with valuable feedback, for which I am very grateful.

1. Song of the Stars (Algonquin)
We sing with our light.
We are the birds of fire.
We fly o'er the sky.
Our light is a voice.
We make a road for the spirits to pass over.
Among us are three Hunters who chase a bear.
there never was a time when they were not hunting.
We are the stars which sing.
We sing with our light.
We look down on the mountains.
This is the song of stars.
