About the Music
Canticle: Mosaic in Remembrance and Hope was commissioned by Harvard University
United Ministry (Rev. Mark D. W. Edington, project coordinator) for the one year
memorial of the events of September 11, 2001. The work was premiered by the Choral
Fellows of the Harvard University Choir, Murray Forbes Somerville, conductor,
Dolores Zdancewicz, flute, on September 11, 2002, at Tercentenary Theatre, Harvard
University, Cambridge Massachussetts to an audience of over 10,000.
The texts for this work come from the principal writings of five religious faiths
(Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, and Baha-i) on the themes of remembrance,
hope, and peace. The texts were submitted by representatives from Harvard United
ministry of those faith groups.
The works title, Canticle: Mosaic in Remembrace and Hope, describes the way in
which these fragmentary texts and excerpts from the different religious traditions are
put together in the manner of a mosaic or collage, rather than any kind of narrative.
An extract from the Kaddish prayer (Jewish faith) serves as a sort of ritornello in the
work, and recurs throughout between the other sections. The musical material of that
ritornello (set as two parts in contrary motion, using a mixed-mode scale [lydian and
mixolydian]) serves as a generating force for the rest of the compositions musical
material.
The flute plays a significant role throughout the composition. It serves as another
voice in contrast to the voice of the choir reacting with, joining in, and spurring on.

May the One who makes peace in the heavens bring peace to us.
- (from the Kaddish prayer, Jewish faith)
Let them see no one as their enemy or as wishing them ill, but think of all humankind as their
friends... Bestir yourselves! Do all in your power to be as one, to live in peace, each with the
others: for ye are all the drops of but one ocean, the pearls of but one shell... The flowers and
herbs from but one garden...
- (from Abdu'l Baha, Baha-i faith)
Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. God is our refuge and strength, an ever
present help in trouble.
- (Psalm 34:14 and 46:1, Christian faith)
What actions are most excellent? To lighten the sorrow of the sorrowful, to remove the wrongs
of the injured. That person is the most beloved of God.
- (the prophet Muhammed, Muslim faith)
Watch the thought and its way with care, and let it spring from love out of concern for all
beings.
- (the Buddha, Buddhist faith)
May the One who makes peace in the heavens bring peace to us.
