A "striking and evocative" original setting of the well-known 23rd Psalm that alternates between Hebrew and English translations of the text. The piece was composed in the shadow of loss, and dedicated to the memory of a 19-year old full of life who left this world too soon. The piece's fluid tonality between major and minor is meant to represent the duality of emotions present when this beloved psalm is turned to for comfort in times of loss: an alternating of pain and grief tempered with hope and faith. Filled with "moments of beauty" and "a lovely idea at its core" this piece is sure to be a standout in your spring program or festival repertoire, and is equally as suited for the sanctuary as it is the concert stage. Conservative ranges and intuitive partwriting, including generous unison during the Hebrew language passages, ensures that this piece is within reach of many SATB choirs.
