Program Note: Atlas was a collaboration with my friend and fellow Eastman student, Leif Pedersen. We first met in Repertory Singers during our first year of undergraduate during the madness of 2020. Funny story, I jokingly promised to Leif that I would write a song based on one of his poems during one of the many false re alarms at the Student Living Center. In this song, I wanted to express the burden one carries on their back like Atlas from Greek mythology, but instead of going for an extremely serious tone, I decided to go for a more whimsical and chaotic approach. You’ll hear haunting chords, a waltz in the wrong meter, and a little bit of everything all in one.
