That section in the middle and at the end when the singers are singing and sounding like owls is so genius! This is an awesome piece

Thank you so much! I'm glad it's not too obvious.

If this the face of modern choral music then I love it and we're fortunate. It's a beautiful piece.

Thank you! I only WISH it were the face of modern choral music...
