What Is Peace?

"Peace, like war, must be waged - mindfully, deliberately, with arms ever ready and eyes wide open." Striking modern harmonies declare the importance of Charles Anthony Silvestri's profound text on the nature of peace, dramatically set for mixed or treble choirs with the option to perform a cappella or with piano or harp accompaniment. Taken from Arnesen's major work Tuvayhun, where this movement follows the words "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God" from the Beatitudes.
