for SSA and piano
In this passionate four-movement work, composer Bob Chilcott and lyricist Delphine Chalmers explore themes of inclusivity, identity, and unity. The middle movements, 'Harmony' and 'Rhythm', have strong grooves and rhythmic drive, while the outer movements, 'Unison' and 'Resolution', are steadfast and uplifting. Songs my Heart has Taught Me brings singers and audience together in a celebration of all that unites us.
This work was originally published in a version for mixed voices, commissioned by the American Choral Directors Association as the 2021 Raymond W. Brock Memorial Commission.
