Everyday Wonders (The Girl from Aleppo)—
Cecilia McDowall. Everyday Wonders: The Girl
from Aleppo tells the extraordinary story of
Nujeen Mustafa, a Kurdish teenager with cerebral
palsy forced by war to flee her home and embark
on an arduous journey to Europe with her sister.
Pushed in a wheelchair by her sister, Nasrine, from
Aleppo to Germany, her journey was the subject
of much publicity. Throughout many months,
Nujeen remained brave, blithe and articulate.
This 18-minute cantata traces Nujeen's journey
with a musical narrative using chorales, haunting
vocal solos, intense solo violin passages, restless
choruses, and body percussion to follow the
sisters through various countries to their ultimate
destination in Germany. It is the story of a journey
of hope and extraordinary fortitude against all
odds. The five movements are: 1. Orphans of
the World; 2. Thousands milling at the border
(The Journey); 3. I had never seen the sea before;
4. A lost tribe pushed from border to border; 5.
Everyday Wonders.

the piano and cajon propel the rhythmic motion
forward. Powerful!

sensibility. Unexpected shifts between major
and minor, unresolved cadences, and a section
with layered, overlapping voices lead to a simple
unison ending. Very moving!
