Levavi oculos meos
For SSAATTBB choir
text inspired by the English text of Psalm 121 from the King James Version
This piece was born from a deeply personal longing for salvation and meaning, a yearning for the unveiling of a presence that watches over us, in life and in death. The music traces a path from quiet supplication to luminous affirmation, reflecting the Psalm’s promise with a blend of vulnerability and strength.Marked by evocative harmonies and emotional intensity, the piece gives voice to a cry, not one of despair, nor simply of hope, but of a relentless invocation: a need to keep reaching out, refusing to surrender to silence.
