Hope is a Thing with Feathers

Text: Emily Dickinson | ( s a t b ) | piano accompaniment | The beautiful poem of imagery and figurative language is gently brought to life in this lovely choral piece. The music moves delicately through harmonic and melodic intricacies that compliment Dickinsons thoughts beautifully. The overall effect of the music is richness, grace and purity. Like the text, the piece channels musical thoughts both complex and simple. Dickinsons depth in her symbolism are represented in in each voice through serene melodic and rhythmic movement as well as exquisite harmonies that are blended throughout. Truly an elegant experience for both singers and listeners.
