Invictus is a level 4 piece for SATB Choir and Piano. It is an excellent work for high school, college, and community choirs. The work is based on two William Ernest Henley poems (IV and XI) from his collection entitled Life and Death Echoes. Henley had one leg amputated at the age of 16 due to complications from tuberculosis. At 23, he was told he should have the other leg amputated, but chose to seek treatment from Joseph Lister instead. While in treatment, Henley wrote the verses that later became known as 'Invictus, also used as the title for the movie, based on the John Carlin book, Playing the Enemy: Nelson Mandela and the Game That Made a Nation.
