Recorded live on Thursday, July 3, 2014, at Christ Lutheran Church in Oakland Park, Florida. Performed by the Concert Choir ensemble of the Girl Choir of South Florida. Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson, Accompanist: Gayle Giese. Note from the composer: "Still I Rise" was inspired by the poem of the same name by poet laureate Maya Angelou. It is a women's anthem, saluting the strength to persevere through life's difficulties–low self-esteem, physical and emotional abuse, prejudice, abandonment, and the like. In summary, though a woman's life or past may Be filled with tears and heartaches, with each day that she finds herself still living, she finds that she has grown stronger and risen a little higher Because her circumstances have not overcome her. Thus, every new day can Be one of hope and joy Because regardless of the past, today, "still I rise"! Though I have Been wounded, aching heart full of pain. Still I rise, yes, still I rise. Jus' like a budding rose, my...    less

Artistic Director: Wallis Peterson. Rosemary, Rosemary, There's a Pig in yOur garden, With silk bristles frizzy And tushes of snow! But Rosemary was cautious, She said, "Beg yOur pardon! I'm really too busy To look down Below." Rosemary, Rosemary, There's a Bird in yOur kitchen! His voice is gold water, He says, "Pretty Poll!" But Rosemary heard nothing, Putting stitch after stitch in The dress of a daughter, Her thirty-sixth doll. Rosemary, Rosemary, A silver-ringed Rabbit! He bridles and gentles And wants you astride! "I prefer," said Rosemary, "To ride a Good Habit." She went buying black lentils- She did till she died.  less
