For SATB and piano, this original setting of Maya Angelou's poem, Prayer is in a soulful 6/8. (The accompaniment occasionally quotes Lift Every Voice and Sing, which gives you an idea of the tempo and feeling.) Beginning with a series of thanks, the piece has a slower middle section with a series of petitions, beginning, For those who have no voice, we ask you to speak. Then the music of the first section reappears and the piece closes with a prayer for peace. This is an unusual and powerful musical offering for any occasion focusing on justice and social concerns.

Prayer is one of the composer's most original and sophisticated works. The typical African-American church service seems to be a source for this piece with its interplay of sections and colors, yet the work in form and rhythmic choices is clearly 'classical' and never breaks out into easy imitations of, for example, gospel music.The work opens with the choir singing the spiritual 'My Lord, What a Mornin'' in octaves, sung flat-out a cappella, as might happen in church. The instrumental section following this opening feels very much like a thoughtful response by the congregation. Instruments seem to behave like individual churchgoers, colorfully dressed and answering various episodes with individual thoughts. As for any fears that the mighty organ might drown out the proceedings, Singleton puts that to rest by employing it almost like another choir or section of the choir. The trumpet soloist does not blast us into heaven, it tends to sing and, we find out later, is preparing us for the spiritual 'Where Shall I Be When the Firs' Trumpet Soun'?' Even the tenor soloist behaves much like just another (but still important) instrument.The composer has chosen to not only feature spirituals, but also to set a poetic text called A Christian Prayer, whose main message, almost like some modern-day Kyrie, calls out 'save us teach us ' and extols the importance of humility and the defeat of violence. Singleton has always been a composer who has simultaneously answered the call to carry out what he feels is his duty to his fellow humans while using the finest of his art to do so, and Prayer finds him at the top of his game.- Carman Moore.

I have used heterophony (simultaneous variation of a single melodic line) in the choral writing, not just because it is a technique I find rewarding as a composer and as a listener, but also as a way of reflecting the 'shared inheritance' of the prayer - I mean, the many translations in which it exists and is regularly used, and the many denominations and strands of Christianity (and beyond) for whom it is a central, or model, way of speaking to God. My hope is that this piece, which may possibly have some connection to the actual physical sound of Jesus' own words, will provide a meditative and a moving experience, whether performed in a liturgical or concert setting, and whether performed by, or for, Christians or for those of any or no religious faith.

Kyle Pederson's gift for songwriting is on full display in this heartfelt prayer for peace. Folk and classical styles blend seamlessly as the choir both asks for shalom, then offers shalom to the listener, to friends and family, to those we don't know, and even to our enemies: ...heal us all that we may know the wholeness of your great shalom..

Psalms 130, 120.

The texts for Prayer for Peace are excerpted from Psalms 130 and 120 and from the Agnus Dei of the Mass Ordinary. The word peace appears randomly throughout the work in a variety of languages in an attempt to illustrate its cultural universality. Performers and conductors can decide on their own how to render these passages. If available, the song bowls in D and A will add rich sonorities, but the piece can be performed effectively without them.
