CANTUS: Stars by Ēriks Ešenvalds

Here is the eighth installment from Cantus’ COVID-19 Sessions recorded live on March 17, 19, and 20. The beauty and loneliness in Sara Teasdale’s poem "Stars" are captured perfectly by composer Ēriks Ešenvalds. We have all gazed up at the night sky with wonder at its majesty, and Ešenvalds’ piece captures Teasdale’s words elegantly. We chose to record in the underground Westminster parking garage first for its acoustic, which gives the piece a stunning aural dimension. It has since taken on a deeper meaning and serves as a metaphor for those of us feeling increasingly trapped and isolated. We sing a song about the stars, 50 feet underground. ---- Alone in the night On a dark hill With pines around me Spicy and still And a heaven full of stars Over my head White and topaz And misty red; Myriads with beating Hearts of fire The aeons Cannot vex or tire; Up the dome of heaven Like a great hill I watch them marching Stately and still And I know that I Am honored to be Witness Of so much majesty ---- linktr.ee/cantussings
