Beschreibung:
Arranged here for unison voices and piano, this uplifting and affirmatory piece sets a text by the composer inspired by the reflections of the Northwest Girlchoir on what their choir means to them. A warm first verse and chorus is transposed into 6/8, taking on a dance-like feel, while the piano's continous quaver movement echoes the text's encouragement to 'carry the music on'. The gradual building of textures creates an atmosphere of heartfelt celebration of choral singing, leading to the profound closing words 'I hear you. I see you too'.
