for SABar and piano

This engaging, upbeat work sets a text by the Malaysian singer Bihzhu celebrating the collective excitement in exploring the unknown. Fly! features a contemporary, pop-inspired melody and a fun, syncopated scat motif in the lower part. The supportive piano accompaniment brings a hint of the Malaysian soundworld through its use of fourths, and minimal divisi in the vocal writing makes the piece accessible to a broad range of choirs.

Also available in a version for upper-voices.
