About I Don't Sing
I Don't Sing is a powerful exploration of visibility and truth, drawing on profound texts from Julian of Norwich and W.E.B. Du Bois. The lyrics grapple with societal neglect and the complex realities of human history, posing the question of how best to guide humanity. Furtak's composition sets these contemplative words in a secular context, employing the intricate, interwoven texture of canons. This piece is expertly crafted for two distinct choral forces, SSAA and TTBB, offering directors a compelling opportunity to programme music that is both intellectually stimulating and emotionally resonant.
