Description:
At Dawn, a beautiful work for three-part choir with piano and optional violin, celebrates the awe-inspiring beauty of a sunrise. The piece contrasts the excitement of nature awaiting the dawn-which is reflected in the shifting tonalities of the verses-with the steady, regal arrival of the sun in the chorus. A gentle Latin text builds to a triumphant three-part C major chord that musically reflects the majesty of the sunrise. The piano part alternates between power and harp-like tenderness, underlining this lively and uplifting depiction of the arrival of dawn.
