Christ Is The Day was composed specifically for my recording, This Our Joy and This Our Feast (more info here). Richard Leach’s finely crafted text inspired a gentle, lilting melody that builds in intensity to a most emphatic conclusion. For SATB choir with oboe and piano, it can be purchased at giamusic.com.

The poetry of Sara Teasdale, which I discovered in an art song setting, was the inspiration for this work. A Christmas carol for SATB chorus with piano, oboe and cello accompaniment, it is both meditative and joyful, ending gently with the baby Jesus sleeping through it all.
