For SSAA and piano Refuge sets a powerful Sara Teasdale poem that perfectly captures the healing power of singing: 'For with my singing I can make a refuge for my spirit's sake'. Quartel's musical structure complements the narrative, opening and closing with music marked 'resilient and strong', with a 'warm and hopeful' central section.
