An isolated poet offers words of struggle and connection to her imagined readers
Commissioned by Women's Works
Poet/Lyricist:
George Ella Lyon
In George Ella Lyon's poem, "Growing Light," an isolated poet reaches out to an imagined reader, offering encouragement and solidarity. This expressive musical setting reflects this sense of solitude and strength, featuring prominent vocal and instrumental solos.

A moving musical testimony to art's ability to speak the truth, transcending the limitations of time and space.

All three instrumentalists are prominent players in the drama of this piece, from the quiet passion of the violinist's first note to its final ethereal echoes. The instrumental parts for the chamber version of this piece are the same as those for the choral version.
