Dickinsons Day: Morning by Kenneth Langer — Lyrics
At last, at last to be identified! At last, at last the lamps upon thy side. Past midnight, past the morning star! Past sunrise! What leagues there are between our feet and day! The rest of life to see!
About Dickinsons Day: Morning
Kenneth Langer's Dickinsons Day: Morning captures a profound sense of awakening and anticipation. The text expresses an almost ecstatic release from the darkness of night, a journey towards the light of day. The composer sets these evocative English words for SSA voices, creating a vibrant sound world that mirrors the exhilaration of the lyrics. This piece, suitable for secular programming, uses the hymn genre as a foundation for its expressive melodic lines and harmonic language. It offers a powerful, uplifting experience for both choir and audience, celebrating the arrival of a new dawn and the vast possibilities that lie ahead.
