Vignettes, No. 1. "Lazily"

This was the concert premiere of "Listen Here," performed by the Ithaca College Choir; Sean Linfors, conductor

Program Notes:
LISTEN HERE was written in response to the tragic mass school-shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on February 14, 2018 in Parkland, Florida.  The anti-war poem by Langston Hughes was chosen because I believe that we are potentially sending our children and ourselves into a new kind of war each day without stricter gun-control laws.  This is not an anti-gun piece.  It is an anti-violence piece, meant to raise awareness around the complex issues and solutions to prevent these recurrent acts of senseless gun-violence.
