Description

McDowall’s moving and poignant setting of this three-movement work is both an exposition on the horrors of war and a celebration of healers. Inspired by renowned nurse Clara Barton, the text is drawn from Barton’s own words, the poetry of Sean Street, and the African American spiritual There is a balm in Gilead.
