This Choral Octavo presents On the Pulse of Morning from Like Dust I Rise (A Choral Song Cycle).
In 1993, Maya Angelou recited this poem at the inauguration of President Bill Clinton, becoming the first African American and the first female poet to deliver an inaugural recitation. Her audio recording of "On the Pulse of Morning" won a Grammy Award® for "Best Spoken Word" in 1994.
Mark Hayes begins with a resounding "See Me Rise" choral fanfare, then brings the hope-filled latter half of the poem to life with rhythmic exuberance.
Ideal for choirs seeking a moving, text-driven work from the song cycle Like Dust I Rise.
