It is singable, powerful, rhythmic, and contemplative. Wong reflects in her music and text the idea that 'the coming-together of many singers to a single location is also the coming-together of many ancestors [...] where they would not have intersected before this'. The percussion part is flexibly written for high and low drums. \u003ci\u003eecho\u003c\/i\u003e was commissioned by National Concerts and was premiered in April 2024 at Carnegie Hall, conducted by Marques L. A. Garrett.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProgramme Notes:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI penned the text reflecting on the nature of group singing that brings folks together for a unique shared moment in time. In many cultures, there is a belief that we carry our ancestors in our hearts as we walk the earth. So, the coming-together of many singers to a single location is also the coming-together of many ancestors connecting in a way and time where they would not have intersected before this, if not for a choral or group singing event. \u003cbr\u003eThis work features a joyous anthemic refrain that bursts through contrasting sections of various tonalities and textures. The contemplative ending allows singers to capture the final moments of music-making in the same space, together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePublisher\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOxford University Press\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eComposer\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eTracy Wong\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBinding\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eOctavo\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003ePages\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e12\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eISBN\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e9780193574519\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eStock code\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e9780193574519\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn-store pickup available.
