Boosey and Hawkes

collapse expand iconDescription

Simple, repeated note patterns form the melodic and accompanimental textures of this piece, evoking a sense of humility. Each verse builds toward a cascade of running 8th notes that subsides in quietness. A mood of reverence permeates the piece as Chief Yellow Lark's words, uttered with eternity in mind, reveal all of life to be sacred.
Boosey and Hawkes O Great Spirit (Concert Music For Women's Choir) Soprano/Alto I/Alto II composed by Shawn Kirchner
