Description
- Composer/Author: DIORIO, DOMINICK
- Instrumentation: SATB A CAP
- Model # 50600076
Composer: Dominick DiOrio
Format: Choral Octavo
Voicing: SATB Divisi A Cappella
This musical setting of the famous Mary Elizabeth Frye poem Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep begins very placidly, and takes the refrain of "I am" as a mantra for existence. The use of a dramatic soprano solo is both a musical and theatrical choice, with the soloist communicating as if from beyond death to those still alive. The chorus is also a character interaction, at times reclusive or electric, but always with a steely presence.
