On Compassion received its premiere performance on July 30, 2016, at St. Paul Seminary (St. Paul, Minnesota) by the Vox Nova Chorale, Bryan Waznik, Director, Vicki Peters, Artistic Director. The text comes from two quotes by His Holiness the Dalai Lama, and the Tibetan Buddhist mantra, "Om mani padme hum," which is repeated by the chorus throughout. The purpose of this mantra is to invoke compassion and ease suffering and pain. The piece begins as an introspective meditation before turning outward, encouraging us to seek fulfillment by exercising compassion toward those around us. -Stephanie K. Andrews Duration: 4:35
