É tudo quanto sinto um desconcerto; Da alma um fogo me sai, da vista um rio; Agora espero, agora desconfio, Agora desvario, agora acerto. Estando em terra, chego ao Céu voando, Nua hora acho mil anos, e é de jeito Que em mil anos nao posso achar ua hora. Se me pergunta alguém porque assi ando, Respondo que nao sei; porém suspeito Que so porque vos vi, minha Senhora. --- I'm so uncer...    less

The Collective was organized in 1939 in Belostok, its first program was prepared in 1941. Now the staff of the Choir consists of gifted musicians who serve selflessly to the Great Art. The artistic side of the Choir is distinguished by the high musical culture, vivid emotionality, richness of the dynamical scale of sounding, high feeling of ensemble, purity of intonation, expression and naturality of singing and its organicity with the word. The Collective has merited a high praise from the side of both critics and audience. "The gentleness and beauty of the sounding voices, purity of intonation and spirituality in the interpretation of the musical material appear very subtly", V.S.Fomin, the pri...    less

For over a century the internationally recognized distress signal has been the Morse Code sequence for SOS: 3 short, 3 long, 3 short ( . . . - - - . . . ). This became the rhythmic framework of note durations (heard in various ways) throughout this work, though it collapses when the chorus sings of “catastrophic climate collapse.” The SOS pattern then returns, transformed into longer durations, calling for renewed attention and devotion to our environment. Commissioned by the Glass Menagerie Chorus, NYC.  less
