HAGEN, D.A.: Everyone, Everywhere (Barkidjija, Bryan Murray, Shavon Lloyd, A. Farid, The Cecilia Chorus of New York with Orchestra, Mark Shapiro)

Daron Hagen is a multi-award-winning composer with a lifelong commitment to emotionally accessible and heartfelt music-making. Everyone, Everywhere is a sweeping cantata composed to mark the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Taking a variety of texts, it charts the articles of the Declaration, opening in fanfare optimism and ending in tenderness, to form a passionate cry for justice and peace. The other settings, utilising texts by W.B. Yeats and President Abraham Lincoln, are both ardent and intimate.
