Description

Composer's Note:

An Ended Day was composed after I asked my first semester composition students to set the same Whitman poem as a single line melody. It was then that I realized the poem make a beautiful choral piece for events such as convocations and commencements. I was mainly concerned with meditating on some of the key words of the poem—“soothing,” “triumph,” “jubilate”—then constructing the rest of the piece around these extended moments.
