About the Score

First Word is about defying expectations, growing, and thriving. The piece aims to depict the journey of a female character who is at first misjudged and underestimated by her peers. At first she is stuck, but then she breaks free from her cage, starts to jog, run, and then fly. The choir begins quietly and in unison, the voices gradually expanding and then contracting in spacing. As the piece continues, the tempo steadily builds. In the last section of the piece, the voice parts split into divisi and the music grows in complexity. Final declamatory harmonies and a rising tenor line portray the moment she takes off into the sky.
