The Dawn Is Not Distant - Longfellow/Donkin - SSAA
Additional Photos:
Lyrics: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow/Genesis 15:5
Composer: Christine Donkin
Format: Choral Octavo
Voicing: SSAA with piano accompaniment
The Dawn is Not Distant joins fragments of text from two very different sources: the Latin translation of Genesis chapter 15 and Tales of a Wayside Inn by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. When read together out of their original context, a new meaning is created.
"Around the time that I began writing this piece, I was thinking about earlier times of my life, and in particular one event that left me heartbroken. The Dawn is Not Distant contains the message of hope and optimism that I would convey to my former self if I were able to travel back in time." - Christine Donkin
