Description
Inspired by the words of an unknown Confederate soldier, this is flute virtuoso and composer Gary Schocker’s first choral piece, though he has previously established himself as a gifted writer of musi cals. Commissioned for the prestigious Ithaca College Choral Series, Unknown Soldier’s Prayer premiered in November 2007. A hauntingly beautiful a cappella piece with the profoundly moving lyrics, “I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life; I was given life, that I might enjoy all things,” Schocker’s ambitious choral endeavor is sure to make a lasting impression. For college or professional choirs. Duration: 5′
