Program Notes
"To You I Give My Heart" is a musical expression of wedding vows. When I was preparing to get married, our officiant asked if we would like to write our own vows. I was intimidated by the idea of writing my own spoken vows, but while struggling with that concept, I had an idea: What better way to show someone how much you care than with a personalized piece of music? I am a composer, after all! Thus, "To You I Give My Heart" was born. I gathered together a group of friends from the various choral groups I'd sung in throughout my life, and they joined their voices in harmony in the middle of the wedding for the premiere performance. I am forever grateful to them for contributing their talents for a special occasion. This piece is dedicated to my partner Steven. ~MH

An accomplished choral singer in addition to composer, Marjorie has performed with many different ensembles in the Bay Area, as well as in Princeton, New York City, and the University of California at Davis, where she received her BA in music theory/composition. She currently sings with Chorus Austin and Inversion Ensemble of Austin, TX.

To You I Give My Heart
To You I Give My Heart text by the composer
To you I give my heart To you I give my soul, my life, my everlasting love With you I share my hopes, my dreams, my fears and my desires For you I will face the foes and the obstacles that may bar our way And all I ask in return is for your heart forever I will go where you go I will live where you live I will be where you are, and stay with you through thick and thin I will be your light in the darkness And I will shine with you in the sun I will be your companion, your partner, your everything To you I give my heart, give my soul, give my life, give my love And all I ask in return is for your heart forever
