Colla Voce

  • "Music, When Soft Voices Die" - In memory of Deborah A. Hunter, text by Percy Bysshe Shelly. (SATB with Piano Accompaniment)[2]
Text

Music, when soft voices die,

Vibrates in the memory;

Odours, when sweet violets sicken,

Live within the sense they quicken.

Rose leaves, when the rose is dead,

Are heap'd for the belovèd's bed;

And so thy thoughts, when thou art gone,

Love itself shall slumber on.[2]

Augsburg Fortress

  • "How Can I Keep from Singing?": (SATB, a cappella, released: Monday, February 4, 2002)[3]
  • "It is Well With My Soul": (SATB, piano accompaniment, released: Wednesday, March 2, 2005)[3]
