'Hope' is the thing with feathers in Bloomington, MN

for SSAA and piano
Presented here in an arrangement for upper-voices, this is a beautiful setting of an evocative poem by Emily Dickinson that explores the symbolization of hope as a bird. Quartel offers soaring melodic lines, rich harmonies, and a fluttering accompaniment to illustrate the persistence of hope even through hardship.
Also available in a version for SATB and piano.
