Sarah reveals slowly that this companion walking with you is your mother, invisibly part of your subconscious, who formed your attitudes and whose example taught you how to raise your own child. My musical setting has frequent moments of canons where one group of singers echoes another, as the connections of daughter to mother resonate back through the generations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can read the poem in the downloadable Preview score.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Listen<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>That Woman<\/strong> was premiered in November 2022 by the Master Singers of Lexington, MA.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-3749-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.spindrift.com\/musfiles\/pjm-partners3-thatwoman.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spindrift.com\/musfiles\/pjm-partners3-thatwoman.mp3\">https:\/\/www.spindrift.com\/musfiles\/pjm-partners3-thatwoman.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Purchase options<\/h2>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ready to purchase?
