Spes (Hope) composed by Mia Makaroff for unaccompanied SSAA choirs.

Spes is a joyous unaccompanied work for more advanced treble choirs. The composer has combined two texts about hope - one in Sami (a language from northern Scandinavia) and the other in Latin from Ecclesiastes - to create a work that uplifts. Challenging but incredibly fun, this would make a great concert opener or program center and would be perfect for honor choirs and festivals.
Spes (Hope)
Who is like the wise?
Who knows the explanation of things?
I belong to the wind,
but I live,
maybe that is the meaning of life.
I live here and now…
I won’t be alive tomorrow.
That is the way – and so what.
As no one has power
over the wind to contain it,
so no one has power
over the time of their death.
A person’s wisdom brightens their face
and changes its hard appearance.
