We Should Be Well Prepared

2022

Composed for the 'Meesters & Gezellen' project with Cappella Amsterdam choir. Recorded in Noordwijk, under the baton of Daniel Reuss. https://www.cappellaamsterdam.nl/productie/meesters-gezellen-2023/

'An impossible longing for something that cannot be - this is at the heart of ‘We Should Be Well Prepared’. Using original text alongside a poem by Mary Oliver (after which the piece is named), the words unpack the process of reckoning with one's yearning. 

The human condition is sensitive to loss, and yet hopeless in dealing with it. We try to be reasonable about these things, accept the natural order of life, but our longing gives us away. 

In the poem, Mary Oliver describes the many ways in which the world prepares us for loss; the way the leaves fall, the way the days go by… everything and everyone eventually comes to an end, all things eventually fall apart. We should be well prepared… and yet, we never are.'
