Judith Clurman Choral Series-Jocelyn Hagen's Vespertilians (Bats) for SATB a cappella. This beautiful text from Ovid's Metamorphoses speaks of the creatures named for the time they first appear: vespertilians (bats). Notscary or to be feared rather here they slip into shadows with translucent wings that sustain their flight with diminished bodies and the tiniest of voices. The composer has crafted a soundscape that paints this mostbeautiful of images of the much maligned nocturnal flyer.
