Sing Your Song represents a recording of 16 masterful choral works that pay tribute to the richness of Canadian musicianship and its composers. The Amabile Choirs of London, Canada have purposefully released this disc for Canada’s sesquicentennial to celebrate their rich choral heritage. This recording features the music of Matthew Emery, renowned Canadian composer, who has been commissioned to write dozens of new choral masterpieces with performances celebrated globally. His writing questions and challenges the human spirit and exemplifies why Canadian choral music is renowned around the world. His use of musical phrase is exquisite and mature; his use of harmonies decidedly unconventional yet readily understood; his marriage of text and music a testament of his beliefs about how music can support the continued existence of a creative and inspiring world. His music definitively questions the world around us and requires the singer, conductor, and listener to respond to those questions spiritually, musically and aesthetically.
