STMA Vivace Treble Choir: 'Song of Miriam' (Elaine Hagenberg)

The St. Michael-Albertville Vivace Treble Choir performs Elaine Hagenberg's achingly beautiful “Song of Miriam.”

“Inspired by the empowering poem by Rabbi Ruth Sohn, this piece describes the journey of a young woman who finds bravery amid uncertainty and fear,” the composer says. The young women of STMA, under the direction of Joe Osowski, capture that perfectly.
