Da Pacem Domine is part of a work I wrote in 2014 called Warrior Songs, a work about the concept ofanon- aggression, of a true Warrior, one who never actually goes into battle. I drew inspiration fromaTibetan Buddhist texts, from Malcolm X and from the from my own Roman Catholic tradition. My motetaDa Pacem Domineis based on a one of the most beautiful Gregorian Chant melodies. Even though theatext is peaceful and hopeful, it still calls for surrender to God's will. The chant sounds rather serious,aeven somber, but again points to the fact that peace does not mean tranquility, it is often a steady walkain the face of adversity.
