"touching the infinite sky is a choral adaptation (for men's chorus with tenor soloist) of the composer's solo song cycle, songs from the high sierra, for high voice and piano. the new choral adaptation employs the additional voices as an expansive background to the soloist. as the chorus joins in the accompaniment sonorities, a sense of space and depth is created, well-suited to songs about the wilderness. the chorus also shares melodic material with the soloist, in dialogue or in unison. the songs begin with an ascent into the mountains. they close with the return to the coast, to the magnificent sequoia trees, where john muir camps for the night, in the company of a squirrel. charmingly, he writes 'therefore, my carr, goodnight.'" - gwyneth walker. duration: 3:15.
