To Those Who Matter

for SATB, upper-voice choir, and piano An expressive setting of a Roberta Hill Whiteman text, this secular title is teeming with melodic lyricism, colour, and character. The meditative vacillation between F sharp minor and D major chords in the piano encircles the final sections and perfectly reflects the text, 'the sunlight in your heart hovers in your smile'. A perfect concert piece for school and community choirs.
