Sigh is a piece for choir, with piano accompaniment and a baritone voice
  solo. This piece would be a great concert piece for high school and
  collegiate level ensembles.
    
    
    
    Sigh was born out of the pain and turmoil of witnessing and experiencing
  the daily racism and systemic discrimination of minority groups in this world
  and in the United States. Sometimes it is difficult to express the intense
  trauma that comes with being a minority, and Sigh follows the journey of an
  individual holding in their feelings to a point where those feelings can no
  longer be contained. During the birth of this piece, stories of black deaths
  were nearly unavoidable and took a heavy toll on the black community. Sigh is
  a representation of the release that the community so desperately needs. It
  is important to note that this piece is driven by the hardships of racial
  minorities, thus it is preferred that the soloist be a person of color to
  better reflect the purpose of this piece.

Vernal Requiem is a combination of poems about spring from the poet, Elva
  Dolis Johnson. Elva Dolis Johnson is a small gem of a poet and is the
  great-grandmother of the composer, Quinn McMath. Great for women's choirs
  high school and up.

The Haunted Palace was written by Edgar Allan Poe and through its
  complexities surrounding dark romanticism, it shows beauty in gloom. The
  music written is meant to capture that feeling. This is a great concert piece
  for High School.

The Haunted Palace

A Bridge Between an Ocean is an experimental contemporary piece that
  deals with the elusive and sometimes damaging transition away from childhood.
  The premise behind the piece is that the first tenor represents a boy
  realizing that his childhood is fleeting away. The other sections represent
  his collective internal self in the form of past, present, and future,
  offering consoling words towards the boy. This piece is to be driven with
  passion and emotion, as the premise is something most listeners will find
  connections to in their own lives.
    
    
    
    A Bridge Between an Ocean is a great piece for an advanced men's group and
  would work well in any classical contemporary performance setting. This piece
  may also be appropriate for advanced high school and collegiate level groups.
  It is suggested that a pianist sit in rehearsals (not for performance) to
  help the members of the choir learn their parts.
