My Own Design
Katerina Gimon. A three-
movement work about self-
discovery, living with purpose,
and finding joy in life's unfolding
journey, the composer's lyrics
are developed from reflections
written by the choristers of the
commissioning ensemble. The
first song, Where Do I Go?,
describes the struggles of
overcoming self-doubt. The next
song, Step by Step, is about
navigating life's challenges and
the journey to achieving one's
goals. Finally, Joy reflects on
the delight found in simple but
profound everyday moments.
Dynamic and accessible, the
work is enhanced with body
percussion, aleatoric passages,
and a contemporary style. Each
movement is also available
separately.
