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

The impact of climate change can already be seen around the globe. This critical issue should leave traces also on Choir Life, and we therefore initiated Earth Choir 2016 – Voices for a Living Planet. Welcome to join us! The project is as ...

Lullaby baby, now reclining, Sing Lullaby! Hush, do not wake the Infant King. Angels are watching, stars are shining Over the place where he is lying: Sing Lullaby! Sing Lullaby! Lullaby baby, now a-sleeping, Sing Lullaby! Hush, do not wake the Infant King. Soon will come sorrow with the morning, Soon will come bitter grief and weeping: Sing Lullaby! Sing Lullaby! Lullaby baby, now a-dozing, Sing Lullaby! Hush, do not wake the Infant King. Soon comes the cross, the nails, the piercing, Then in the grave at last reposing: Sing Lullaby! Sing Lullaby! Lullaby is the babe awaking? Sing Lullaby! Hush, do not stir the Infant King. Dreaming of Easter, gladsome, morning, Conquering death, its bondage breaking: Sing Lullaby!  less

STALLINGS Sleep, she will not linger: She turns her moon-cold shoulder. With no ring on her finger, You cannot hope to hold her. She turns her moon-cold shoulder And tosses off the cover. You cannot hope to hold her: She has another lover. She tosses off the cover And lays the darkness bare. She has another lover. Her heart is otherwhere. She lays the darkness bare. You slowly realize Her heart is otherwhere. There's distance in her eyes. You slowly realize That she will never linger, With distance in her eyes And no ring on her finger.  less
