Mourning Calls is a poem provided by Judith Brice, a local poet of
Petoskey, MI. With the focus on a lonely mallard calling out to her lost
mate, I immediately felt emotionally attached to the content. Perhaps
with my marriage starting out for years of long distance and months
without seeing my then-fiance, the impact this poem had on me ties
directly into the musical aesthetic.
Feelings of loneliness and hopelessness; calling out
and not being heard; persistently reaching for love but falling short.
Crying. Mourning. Pleading.
Instrumentation: Flute, English Horn, Violin, Cello, Baritone, and Harp
