CoverYour World [level: Difficult]
Joan Szymko: Bio and other works | Lori Hetzel Choral Series
voicing: SSAA | catalog number: SBMP 1577 | price: $2.35
accompaniment: piano

The piece opens with a challenge: “Your world is as big as you make it.” The choir dramatically soars to the challenge, and the piano stylistically adds to the impact of this special composition.

Your World
Your world is as big as you make it.
I know, for I used to abide
In the narrowest nest in a corner,
My wings pressing close to my side.

But I sighted the distant horizon
Where the skyline encircled the sea
And I throbbed with a burning desire
To travel this immensity.

I battered the cordons around me
And cradled my wings on the breeze,
Then soared to the uttermost reaches
With rapture, with power, with ease!

Georgia Douglas Johnson
