By The Waters of Babylon
A cappella
Exploring the emotional contrasts of Psalm 137, a tragic story of loss and mourning threaded by nostalgia, this piece uses lyrical melodies embellished by chromatic accents and bombastic chords to bring this story to life. The piece combines sung English text with an undercurrent of whispered Latin, evoking an echo of the past even as the poem's themes of immigration and loss resonate today.
