Circlesong

This major work presents a complete life cycle based on Native American writings. Each of the 13 movements focuses on a different stage of life, from birth and childhood through manhood and middle age to death. With energetic percussion accompaniment, climactic moments for tutti choir, and tender unaccompanied passages and solo song, Circlesong is a work of impressive drama, variety, and depth. The vocal score provides accompaniment for a single piano;  accompaniment for two pianos and percussion is available for rental only.
