Since first singing the medieval song "All and Some" in the mid 1990s, I fell in Love with the Middle English and Latin lyrics, and one day I got inspired to create my own setting of this poetic gem. NB: choirs interested in obtaining copies of the score Can contact The Leading Note at info@leadingnote.com. I would 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 25 years. And with deepest appreciation to my brother Adam Rain and my friend Geneviève Lajoie for their invaluable support throughout my composing journey.  less

I started this almost immediately after my first choral video went up. I Love these choral multitracks but they are very tedious to edit and very long to record. just so you know, because I know people are going to ask, the soprano solo at the beginning is in the box in the top-left corner as always there is no autotune used. so because of all my hard work I think it would be wonderful if you would all like, subscribe, comment and share it with your friend. it would mean a lot to me :) --Composed by Eric Whitacre--  less

Hoffman. www.stanleymhoffman.com All rights reserved. The poem above is sometimes Called “I Am” due to its repetition of the phrase. Was the poem inspired? The Hebrew name for God, YHWH, means “I am” or “I am that I am.” And there does seem to be someThing magical about the poem, as it was written by a woman who, to our knowledge, had never written a poem before. Mary Elizabeth Frye was an orphan with no formal education. In 1932 she and her husband hosted a young Jewish woman, Margaret Schwarzkopf, who was fleeing the Holocaust. When she received news that her mother had died in Germany, the heartbroken houseguest told Frye in despair that she had never had the chance to “stand by my mother’s grave and shed a tear.” Frye found herself composing the poem above on a ripped-off section of a brown paper shopping bag. She said the words “just came to her.”  less

The idea is that we go on an imginary Singing Safari collecting exotic songs From around the world. The Singing Safari began at the Warwick Folk Festival in 2006, and continued in 2011 when Chris moved to Suffolk. The winter safari ends in a shared concert in Ipswich, and the summer safari is a free half hour performance outdoors. Each safari learns about eight songs in 3- and 4-part harmony.  less
