Description:
This creative concert work uses sewing analogies to build a powerful metaphor of self-acceptance. Tailor-made for SSA singers, conversational rhythms and expressive vocal lines form a stunning tapestry of treble voices. Ms. Bedwell's buoyant piano accompaniment reflects the push and pull of trying to make yourself fit. At the emotional center of the piece, the singers implore "Let me be imperfect, and still call me beautiful, 'cause I know I am beautiful!" A relatable text, a rewarding musical journey.
