This Endris Night was written for the Chamber Singers of North Mesquite High School. For many years, I have been writing a Christmas piece for them and their director, Ryan Forkner. The text has been a favorite of mine, and I finally had the opportunity to compose a setting for the group’s 2013 Christmas concert. The cluster chords at the end remind me of looking up at the sky on a clear winter night and seeing a zillion stars. If you click on the Colla Voce link, be sure to listen to this recording. The Texas Voices, Alan Dyer, Director.
