All Things Common

Commissioned by the American Choral Directors Association as the Raymond Brock commission composition for 2018, here is a lush, neo-Romantic setting of texts compiled from the bible and imploring all of us to “make peace” and understand that we live in a world where we have “all things common.” The choral writing is sustained and at the same time rhythmic. There is an urgency in the message that is clearly conveyed by the music.
