I wrote “Pour Toi, Mère” (For You, Mother) which premiered at my senior composition recital. A few years later, Kevin Fenton programmed that piece for his choir at FSU. He shared with me his strong connection with the piece at a time when his sister-in-law, Peggy Fenton was also fighting breast cancer. Sadly, Peggy Fenton lost her fight with cancer in 2009. That same year Kevin contacted me and asked if I would write a piece in her memory for her husband and her two daughters. He shared with me a video of a presentation she did at the Mother’s Day banquet at her church, just a few days before her passing. The title of her presentation was “From Hats to Crown”. She shared stories about her life and the many relationship roles one plays: as a daughter, a sister, as a wife, a mother and a teacher. As she talked about each role she wore a different hat. She ended with a crown, shar...    less

Performed By The Harmonious Chorale-Ghana and Conducted By James Varrick Armaah - 2nd July, 2017 Now, before Act II begins, more biblical story needs to be inserted: After Joseph saves wisely during the seven years of plenty, the famine begins. Because Egypt is now well positioned for food, people from afar come to purchase grain to replace their own failing crops. Among these are Joseph's brothers, who do not recognize him (although he recognizes them). He accuses them of being spies and orders them to leave one of them, Simeon, here in jail while they go home and return with their youngest brother Benjamin (who did not come the first time).  less

We'll Play Our Part used with permission words and music by Paul Ayres © 2020 www.paulayres.co.uk Kaitlyn Janzen, soprano Tess Johnson, alto Dane Harder, tenor Nathan Bartel, bass Craig McLeish, piano Lyrics: We stay apart and we don't know for how long we have to sing alone But staying strong so more voices can join us in chorus one day soon. Though we're apart from everyone, we are a part of everything, and every day everyone in different ways and places is facing this difficult phase. So don't lose heart, let's make a start, let's make our art. We're here to stay, we're here to say we'll play our part. We stay afar and we can't see the ending; the future's still unknown. We still stay strong separated in space; not in spirit, not in song. Though we're apart from everyone, we are a part of everything, and every day everyone in different ways and places is facing this difficult phase. So don't lose hea...    less
