$6.00 Sale

SATB choir and piano.  c.4'00

Based on the poem "Music" by Juhan Liiv (1864-1913).  The English version of “Muusika”, from Snow Drifts, I Sing: Selected Poems edited by Jüri Talvet, was translated from Estonian by Jüri Talvet and H. L. Hix (Guernica Editions, 2013). The translators kindly permitted use of the poem for “Immortality,” citing Liiv’s own tragic ending: “Juhan Liiv was a peasant, and the circumstances of his death were unfortunate. This work is a memorial to Gareth Chan (1969-2016), the beloved pianist for the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Choir (SGLC), who died tragically at a very young age. 
Composed 2016
