Das Lied vom Fremden in einem fremden Land

I wrote this piece for cor anglais for Thomas Herzog to play. I called it Das Lied vom Fremden in einem fremden Land (‘The Song of the Stranger in a strange Land’) to help us identify with the many millions of people across the world who forced out of their homes. But as the Earth buckles under the effects of climate change and war, perhaps none of us can be certain that our familiar places will remain places of shelter and nurture. I hope this piece will help us pray into these things.
