SATB a cappella

Text by Marilyn Lerch, “New Orleans Obliquely.”

Commissioned by Janet Siltanen and premiered by the Ottawa Bach Choir, The Trees on the Edge is a setting of “New Orleans Obliquely,” a tender poem by Canadian poet Marilyn Lerch.  Through observations of trees that grow horizontally from the vertical cliffs along the ocean’s coast, Marilyn reflects on challenges of life amid constant struggle.  Janet read in the poem a reflection on life with Alzheimer’s disease.
The Trees on the Edge is a suitable piece for a secular program and offers some exciting challenges for any choir within a tonal framework.

Shipping: $2.00 per package of 10.
