Description

This piece can be best described as “warm minimalism”: lush, expressive textures luxuriate from repeated, short, melodic phrases, sounding not unlike a choir put through a delay pedal. These textures support two soloists who sing of the ecstasy and melancholy of first love. This piece can serve as an introduction to aleatoric notation and more experimental vocal practices, and is accessible to choirs from the high school level onwards.
