About the Score

This piece was written as the final piece of a collection, “Songs from the Departed,” all setting texts left behind by departed poets, instructing loved ones on how to mourn. Initially a set of 5 pieces, Marie Bucoy-Calavan, my graduate professor and the conductor of the premiere, thought that it was missing something. I found this anonymous text through ChatGPT and immediately feel in love with it. Ambiguously spiritual, this text is deeply hopeful about the time after death, and I found it incredibly comforting. When searching for a good choral text, I am frequently drawn to the final line of the poem and the sentiment it conveys. There is no more comforting thought about imminent death than “Welcome Home.”
