Found Again

Song Cycle for Vocal Quartet and Piano (optional children's chorus) - 25'
Commissioned by Words&Music.
Poetry by Joy Harjo.
Premiered April 9, 2016

Found Again is a 4-part song cycle composed to the poetry of Joy Harjo's publication, Conflict Resolution for Holy Beings. Historically, Joy's poetry is deeply rooted in human relationships and this song cycle is meant to further romanticize her expressions that resonate so deeply within me. Found Again is dedicated to Joy and I am grateful to her gift of beautiful words to the world.
