Fingernail Moon (SSA vocal score)

for SSA and piano In her lyrical setting of a poem by Paul Grindlay that is rich with natural imagery, Saindon creates a sweeping soundworld that emulates the crescent shape of the moon, along with imaginative harmonies that are evocative of the mystery of the sky.

The piece also celebrates the qualities of gratitude and simplicity, inviting the listener to become aware of the community supporting both the work and the artists themselves and to reflect with gratitude for those who provide support in their own lives.
