The pieces here were created via a participatory process with singers and players sheltering in place during the COVID-19 lockdown. Audio performances were compiled digitally then released online in weekly chapters. While there is no score, the individual parts for each chapter are collected in this volume. Texts are excerpted from testimonies collected through the project website throughout the period of composition.
