The Love of the Sea

Jūras mīla

Women’s choir and alto solo2023

Programme note

The sea is treated not as a static landscape but as a living, ancient presence. The work begins with breath, murmuring, whispered consonants, unstable pitch, and freely timed vocal fields; melodic and harmonic material gradually emerges from this sound-world.
