Works for Mixed Chorus
The Children's Hour (2014)
SATB, a cappella, 2:30
Text: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
Longfellow's sentimental poem describes an idyllic family life. In this setting, warm harmonies outline the poet's inner thoughts, in contrast with the playful energy of his beloved daughters.
I Am In Need of Music (2019)
SATB, a cappella
Text: Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
A romantic setting of Elizabeth Bishop's sonnet. Commissioned by Sacred & Profane Chamber Chorus.
I wandered lonely as a Cloud (2020)
SATB, a cappella
Text: William Wordsworth (1770–1850)
2021 winner of Chicago a cappella's HerVoice competition. Aleatoric choral parts underlay solo lines in this piece, written during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The work is an impressive feat of text-painting: Performers can sing
lines slightly staggered to create a hazy, pillowing effect. The ebb
and flow of the text clouds...rightly latches onto the ephemerality of
Wordsworth’s original, not its pretty scenery.”
