James Weldon Johnson's poem, The Gift to Sing, set for SATB choir by Erik Meyer
This piece encourages singers (especially younger ones) to find their own musical voice! It sets Johnson's introspective text about the quiet healing power of music, interspersed with sections for musical improvisation. Singers are welcome to create their own melody while the piano continues to play harmonically. Every voice's heartfelt contribution is valuable and beautiful.
I wrote this piece because throughout my career as a choir director, many of my singers have been told me "I can't really sing", or "so-and-so told me not to sing loud because I'm not good", or "I can't improvise", etc. I want this piece to help bring out everyone's voice - no matter what you have been told in the past, you CAN sing, and more than that, I bet you can improvise! I hope this setting will help singers love their voice.
