Commissioned for the 2010 Southern Division ACDA Men's Honor Choir, David Brunner's broad and majestic music paired with James Broughton's powerful words, combine to make the perfect piece for men's chorus. In the text are found unusual juxtapositions of seeming opposites: “percussive silences,” “the intimate roar,” “the singingvoid,” and a strong bond of brotherhood: “thriving on affec tion” and “closer to me than my own children.” Let your ears ring with “the sound the stars make.” Duration: ca. 4:00.
