Hello all,

I’m a composer, working on a new piece for a commissioning group for Spring 2027. I’m aiming at 60 min in length, and the instrumentation is Choir, String Orchestra, Piano, and Percussion.

This is a new area for me in terms of colors/textures (I’m quite accustomed to choral writing, but less so strings), and wondered if anyone had some recommendations for pieces using this instrumentation. I’m particularly interested in exploring various textures this ensemble can make, as 60 min of the same might get awfully boring.

Thanks in advanced for your time and thoughts!
