There is a Balm in Gilead is a well-known, traditional African-American spiritual. The “balm in Gilead” is a reference from the Old Testament, but the lyrics of this spiritual refer to the New Testament concept of salvation. The balm of Gilead is interpreted as a spiritual medicine that is able to heal Israel (and sinners in general). In the Old Testament, the balm of Gilead is taken most directly from Jeremiah chapter 8 v. 22: Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then is there no healing for the wounds of my [God's] people?This a cappella arrangement stays close to the simple, emotional source material. The words and the music embody weariness, resignation and hope, as the realities of slavery are met with the hope of salvation. There is a Balm in Gilead was originally part of a larger work, entitled, Mpaka simba watapo, for treble chorus, African drums and piano.  .

At the end of every day, there will be stars. Stars are the inspiration for this stunning concert work that offers the reassurance only nature can bring. A lilting piano theme weaves its way through cascading vocal lines that seamlessly expand from pristine unisons into sumptuous sonorities. Your altos will especially love their glimmering, glistening interjections. Be sure to observe notated dynamics, which lean into several well-approached suspensions and taper to twinkling resolutions.
