Fire-Flowers
SSAA div. with piano
Moderately Challenging
Dedicated to the victims of the Northern and Southern California wildfires, October-December 2017
In California there exist several remarkable species of flowers which only germinate after a wildfire. Their seeds can remain dormant for over a century. Then, triggered by intense heat and smoke, the seeds come back to life. Soon the scorched chaparral is covered with crimson, lavender, yellow, orange and blue wildflowers. Fire-Flowers is a song about hope and healing.
