Summary

Notes: A song with two voices, in a way -- the cry of the heart which feels swallowed by darkness and lost, and the response or presence of a wisdom -- an angel, or ancestor, or Yoda?! -- who sees the seed inside the darkness that holds the dream of green during the waiting time. I love the way this song lets me give voice to different experiences. Barbara has given us an extremely satisfying lift on the "call to the sky" line... and a lovely low rumble for "cannot remember", and "to the night." In western classical baroque times, that was called word painting... a wonderful way of yoking different parts of our brains into a whole, connected intent.Songwriter Info: Barbara McAfee is a master voice coach, singer/songwriter, song leader, and river walker who lives an hour outside of Minneapolis/St. Paul in St Croix Falls, Wisconsin.Links:Barbara's website is at www.barbaramcafee.comBarbara's Tedx talk on the Full Voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ze763kgrWGg Song Learning Time Stamps:Start time of teaching: 00:02:16Start time of reprise: 00:13:34 Nuts & Bolts: 4:4, minor, 3 layers, 2 with the same words.
