I am the secret fire in all things, scored for SSAA divisi and two soprano soloists, was premiered by the Vancouver Chamber Choir, Jon Washbun, conductor, in November 2008. The Hildegard von Bingen text, translated by Wilson Hall (deceased professor of English at Shorter College in Rome, Georgia and dear friend), is a text that fosters many opportunities to depict the mysterious nature of God, His transcendence into all the human experience, and the hope, through vulnerability, that resonates in the gravamen for individual transubstantiation through the struggles inherent in Life's Stuff. This composition celebrates the transforming power of spirituality, the evolution of the human spirit when one amalgamates with unknowing, and the ecstasy that saturates Life when one acknowledges the God Presence already within.  .I am the secret fire in all things, scored for SSAA divisi and two soprano soloists, was premiered by the Vancouver Chamber Choir, Jon Washbun, conductor, in November 2008.
