We Two in a Park at Night (2022)

for SATB choir and soloist / commissioned by Heritage Chorale of Oak Park, IL

“We Two in a Park at Night” was commissioned by Heritage Chorale. J. Wing’s text describes a damp, chilly night in spring. This setting, using unstable harmonic shifts and occasional bird calls, brings that landscape to life.
