SATB div. choir a cappella

This piece tells the poignant story of a girl who struggles to believe that her voice deserves to be heard. Its message feels especially urgent today, as women continue to fight to be recognized, listened to, and believed. Scored for a cappella choir, the music is intentionally slow and understated, creating space for the text to resonate deeply and invite moments of quiet self-reflection.

Text

there is a girl who
sings only when
every window
is shut.
like most girls,
she’s been learning
the trait of silence
since birth.
everyone
underestimates
how important
her voice is,
& the greatest
tragedy of all is
that she does,
too.
~ Amanda Lovelace
