For a long time, I felt there was an a cappella choral piece hiding within it, in plain sight. One day I got inspired and gave it a try. Creating a choral adaptation of a piano piece has its challenges. I tried to keep faithful to Satie's original musical inspiration and created lyrics to go with my arrangement that evoke an early Summer morning, one of my favourite times of the year.

We are appealing to as many people as possible to participate in the project by giving whatever they would like, in return for a reward or perk.
