An impassioned piece set to a text by Bahá'u'lláh, founder of the Bahá'í faith. The text is exemplary of this faith that seeks to unite the world in peace and understanding. The title suggests the time to do this is upon us. The piece is being published with the blessing of the leaders of this faith. It received a marvelous premier by the recording choir listed below. An excellent piece for the mature, large choir.

SUBLIME!
This piece is absolutely gorgeous. The text is beautiful, its taken from the Sacred Writings of the BahaI Faith and its about how important it is for us, in this day, to reconcile our differences and to focus on the spiritual laws. The harmonies are beautiful and flowing. There is quite a bit of divisi so you will need a good sized choir for it to sound really beautiful. And youll need some extra good sopranos to pull of the sustained high B flat. There are key signature changes, time signature changes (including 3/2 and 9/8) and some tricky rhythms. The sopranos have some long sustained pianissimo notes on E5 (top of the staff), which can be difficult for many as that can be right in their passaggio. So, all in all, not suite for beginners, but your more advanced singers will love it!
