Written for the Conspirare Company of Voices and Craig Hella Johnson, this original work requires SATB soloists, SATB chorus (divisi) and some sort of percussion (the composer says "stick, or drum." ) Starting in the style of a slow spiritual, the piece builds in excitement as the four soloists (as well as some drawn from the chorus) improvise over the music. A thorough and thoughtful page of instructions is provided as to the overall performance and the improvisations (which are extensive and rhapsodic.) An amazing, energetic piece for your singers to encounter.
