It was one of his most popular madrigals, as well as one of the most internationally famous songs of the period. It is apparently based on John Dowland’s “Flow, my Teares”. Like Dowland’s lyrics, these lyrics express an intense melancholy of someone whose happiness has been abruptly shattered and desires to not be saved from this dark despair. The speaker wishes his death by drowning in his despair, in his tears. The expression of melancholy, and notions of darkness, neglect, Time’s cruelty, spiteful age, were themes used by Elizabethan songwriters to prefigure the stark inevitability of death, and it remained a prominent feature of English literature and music in the time of Elizabeth I and Shakespeare.

The word 'vacilando' is Spanish, and refers to taking enjoyment out of the journey rather than focusing on the destination. As such, the choir will take a more casual approach to music-making, with fewer performances throughout the season than Òran, our young adult choir. The group will still place an emphasis on all the things that make Kokopelli's music-making unique, however: community, multiculturalism, choral excellence, and multifaceted performances.  less

Steh des Nachts auf und schreie zu Beginn jeder Nachtwache, Schütte dein Herz aus vor dem Herrn wie Wasser. Hebe deine Hände zu ihm auf um des Lebens deiner junger Kinder willen, die vor Hunger verschmachten an allen Strassenecken! Herr, schaue und sieh doch Wen du so verderbt hast! Gedenke doch, wie ich so elend und verlassen, mit Wermut und Galle getränkt bin Du wirst ja daran gedenken; den mein...    less
