This is footage from The Australian Voices' concert at St Stephani, Bremen in December, 2010. Gowned as a bride thou art Caught with the glow, Giving with ruddy heart Blood to the snow. Thou has come in to make Dreams to the boy, Lightly the girl will take Omens of joy. Thou hast the taste of all Sweethearts in Spring, Thou hast come out to call Colours to sing. Low rides the sun above, Meek as the moon: Thou art as moist in love As a love tune. Still as a bride thou art In a bride's gown: See! an uplifted heart Beats in a clown.

THANK YOU! "Where then could pain find a hold?" is a musical plea for reconciliation addressed to those (individuals, groups, nations) who find themselves in conflict. I would like to acknowledge pianist Fred Hersch whose magical playing of Billy Joel's "And so it goes" in the middle of an Ottawa winter inspired me to start working on this piece. I would like to thank my Ottawa singing friends in the "Ad hoc Chorale" for testing out this piece in one of our informal workshops and offering valuable comments. I would also like to acknowledge the a cappella choir that I sing in, The Stairwell Carollers, and our director Pierre Massie, for their musical inspiration these past 27 years. And with deepest appreciation to my brother Adam Rain and my friend Geneviève Lajoie for their invaluable support throughout my composing journey. NB: choirs interested in obtaining copies of the score can conta...    less
