- 'and the swallow' by American composer Caroline Shaw (b.1982) is a setting of Psalm 84, expressing a yearning to be close to God. The second verse speaks of a sparrow and a swallow finding a home, which put the composer in mind of the Syrian refugee crisis and the search for a home where a family can grow.
How beloved is your dwelling place
O Lord of hosts.
My soul yearns
my heart and my flesh cry.
The sparrow found a house, and the swallow her nest,
Where she may place her young.

Dieser Gesang ist so schön. Die Schwalbe ist eine wunderbare Metapher ….
THIS IS MUSIC!!!! I get goosebumps every time I hear them. Impressive!! All the interpreters feel this in such a genuine way and are able to convey this truth in such a pure way.... only those who don't have a heart don't feel it!! Thank you very much for the wonderful shares!❤❤❤
We NEED the full performance of this piece! It's a remarkable composition and the sound of this choir is incredible!
💖💖
One of the best things happening to me this year is coming across this Choir❤️❤️✨
Thank you! We're so glad!
So impressed at the humming passages...need to do those for a Vaughn Williams piece and they are difficult to manage clearly at high pitch.
The yearning is so strong in this composition. So well done!
Дуже дякую! Молодці!

Very much of the Eric Whitacre school, USA.
Caroline Shaw is an American composer- though this style is fairly ubiquitous now. Lovely piece.
It's not long enough.
Peak England….
you believe yourself not God and try to be close to IT. in reality god is in all form experiencing the universe through sentient beings in the illusion of not being ITSELF.
