Backstory

Elle began writing this work in late 2016/early 2017. It had its first performance at Westview Presbyterian in Longmont in spring 2017. Ben and Elle performed the work live on YouTube in spring 2020, and many of the performers you’ll hear today brought the work to life for the third time in 2022. Almost all the songs have been present at all four performances, except Lift Up Your Heads, which premiered last year, and Treasure, which will premier this year. Elle hopes this work will continue to grow and engage new performers and audiences each year. Thank you for sharing your time and attention and for supporting new works and live, local music!
