Description
Elements is set of choral works that abstractly depict the four classical elements and explores the wide range of capabilities of the human voice - from overtone singing, to vocal percussion, to colourful vocal timbres. Elements features no 'text' (at least not in the traditional sense), rather a series of syllables generated through improvisation meant to evoke the sound and energy of each element.
Elements was premiered in March 2014 by Laurier Singers under Lee Willingham. This set of works is a 2016 SOCAN Young Composers Competition winner, a 2015 Vancouver Chamber Choir' Young Composers' Competition winner, and a 2014 IAWM Search For New Music winner.
