“If Ever There Is” is a setting of “John’s Song,” by American poet Robert Creeley (1926-2005).

This early Nineteenth Century melody literally throbs with the pathos and dreams of an enslaved people, looking heavenward for deliverance. Scored for a cappella SATB choir, and soprano solo, this lush arrangement makes one stop in awe and wonderment, at such beauty born from the deepest despair.
