Aspaas, Christopher

With an opening melody that hearkens to Henry Purcell's touchstone setting, dissonant harmonies and metrical shifts take us in a very different direction. The discord of the piece seeks to emphasize the longing and need of one who feels unimportant, small, and like a stranger to God. The piece slowly builds several times, eventually reaching out with a tremendous crescendo followed by an unresolved plea, "hear my cry."English
