Satie/Rain: "As dawn breaks,” #1 (Summer) Ottawa Four Seasons Suite (sung by Matthew Curtis)
Erik Satie's Sarabande No. 1 is one of my favourite piano pieces. 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.

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.
Several months later, I applied to be a participant at one of the Vancouver Chamber Choir's Interplay workshops funded by the SOCAN Foundation and to my delight I was accepted.
"As dawn breaks" was one of the pieces that this amazing Choir sight read for me on the spot. VCC director Jon Washburn and Choir members then provided me with valuable feedback, for which I am very grateful.
NB: One day I woke up to the realization that I had independently written four Choral works, each of which had evoked a different season, and so it seemed natural to group ... etParent().getPrevious().style.display='';$(this).getParent().style.display='none';">less

About the work:
“Nou La” (We Are Here) was commissioned by the Phoenix Chamber Choir. The organization uses their platform to make a difference and stand with those whose voices who have yet to be heard. Written in 3 languages, the text of “Nou La” was a collaborative effort between Sydney, Frédéricka Petit-Homme and Lloyd Reshard Jr.. After many meaningful conversations, the heart of the text was realized. Lloyd expressed his sentiments, stating: “The English portion of ‘Nou La’ stems from the social, cultural, racial and political unrest that has been stirred during the global Covid-19 pandemic.

I have given this song the sub-title: "A Crazy Choral etude for Rolled Rs and Perfect 5ths." It is meant, no pun intended, to be a musical lark, great fun for a Choir to sing, rolling Rs like crazy, with no holding back.
NB: One day I woke up to the realization that I had independently written four Choral works, each of which had evoked a different season, and so it seemed natural to group them together into a Choral Suite that I have called "The Ottawa Four Seasons Suite."
"Let's sing, it's Spring!", with its rousing coda section, works perfectly as the closing number of this Suite.
Also of note, in early 2018, I applied to be a participant at one of the Vancouver Chamber Choir's Interplay workshops funded by the SOCAN Foundation and to my delight I was accepted.
