I AM THE WIND SSAA

In this piece for SSAA choir and piano, poet Zoe Atkins compares her uncertainty to the wavering winds and shifting shadows, contrasting with the unchanging stars and secure land. This poetic tension is mirrored musically through rhythmic contrast and dissonant choral harmonies which highlight the power of women's voices--joining together, offering strength and, ultimately, soaring as one. Commissioned by the National ACDA Women's Choir Consortium, this piece is a rewarding challenge for advanced women's choirs.
