Composer, Mark Winges; Librettist, Denise Newman
This three part piece was written for the 30th anniversary of the Piedmont Children's Choir, and is scored for three of their treble choirs.
Each text reflects aspects of the age group for each choir, moving from childhood to young adulthood. fog and a god has a headlong rushing and excitement, pool is to wade starts with a flowing gesture, but then becomes animated before slowing to become lost in its dreams and questions, streaming away picks up the placid dream from pool is before speeding to the “coursing, gushing, flooding stream”.
Commissioned and performed by The Piedmont Choir, conductor by Bob Geary
Performance: March, 2013 Oakland, CA.
