Entrance
“Entrance” is a new choral composition for SATB choir w/piano accompaniment. The inspiring, secular text is by Dana Gioia, former US poet laureate. It invites the listener to find new discoveries, new creations: “step out…. of the room that lets you feel secure. / Infinity is open to your sight.” With a jazz-influenced, uptempo piano accompaniment, the rhythmic vitality of the piece lends itself to the addition of movement/choreography in performance. “Entrance” is ideal for accomplished high school choirs as well as university and community ensembles.
