This SATB divisi concert piece was inspired by those who leave us too soon and reminds us that they live on in our memories. The piece opens with a piano motif establishing the melodic material on which will be developed. Upon the entrance of the voices, a unison melody soon cascades into falling SSA harmonies and echoes. The piece picks up tempo with a rhythmic drive and a TB feature that expands into full choir before going into a developing section that introduces the Latin phrase “Stellae in Aeternum” meaning “Forever with the stars.” A broad musical climax features numerous overlapping independent melodies previously featured before a dramatic final key change and a slow, soft ending.
