Nowadays, classical Choral singing covers only a narrow social stratum. Over the last 20 years palette of music offered by the media has been watered down on an unprecedented scale, and the frigthening fact is that human values can be found less and less in them. The Voisingers is a novel approach to each song by the newly born transcripts, a new community, a decision that evaluates and realizes - considering musical needs of young people more than ever - the further development of the world-famous Hungarian Choral music less

text: Keats (from Ode to a Nightingale)
Darkling I listen; and, for many a time
I have been half in love with easeful Death,
Call'd him soft names in many a musèd rhyme,
To take into the air my quiet breath;
Now more than ever seems it rich to die,
To cease upon the midnight with no pain

A restless, energetic SATB piece suitable for collegiate Choirs. A driving piano part--influenced by minimalism and rock music--provides a rhythmic impetus for more expansive, colorful vocal lines.
