The Flight (Richard Causton)
The Flight (Richard Causton) Chicago Chamber Choir Christopher Windle, conductor from "The Sound of Silence", Spring 2024 -- The child on the dirt path finds the highway blocked The dogs at the entrance snarl that doors are locked The great god of kindness has his kindness mocked May those who travel light Find shelter on the flight May Bethlehem Give rest to them. The sea is a graveyard the beach is dry bones the child at the station is pelted with stones the cop stands impassive the ambulance drones We sleep then awaken we rest on the way our sleep might be troubled but hope is our day we move on for ever like children astray We move on for ever our feet leave no mark you won’t hear our voices once we’re in the dark but here is our fire this child is our spark.

Wondrous Glow (Mari Esabel Valverde)
Wondrous Glow (Mari Esabel Valverde) The Chicago Chamber Choir Christopher Windle, conductor Elena Hensel, solo from "In beauty may I walk," our Spring 2023 program www.chicagochamberchoir.org ---- Grand Design (for M81 and the rest of us) today collect the dazzling shelter of flowers stitch a crown large enough for the globe fragrant enough for satellites to lift their noses take the prayer of night into your arms as she sleeps, breathe with her breathe with the night there are times when there is nothing left to do, but create form the unseen into a tangible communion of stardust, place the galaxy on your tongue let your mouth be a wondrous glow your words a beacon when everything is lost imagine yourself as more than an earth- quaking body a gift the streaking tail of a comet become that which holds your eye that which makes you gasp Amir Rabiyah
