"Refugees". Score : unison men's choir & wind band. Duration : approximately 16 minutes. The multilingual lyrics have been written by Jacques Aussems. "Refugees" depicts the darkest pages of our planet's history book. People have been forced to leave their homelands since the very notion of a country was created. From the Israelites driven out of Canaan in 740 BC up until today's multiracial victims of hate, crime and war. Everytime..... Everywhere..... The world premiere performance took place on sunday 18 september 2022 @ Theater aan het Vrijthof Maastricht. Performers : tenor soloist Pascal Pittie, Brunssum and Sweikhuizen men's choirs conducted by Hans Luesink & St. Agnes Bunde wind band conducted by Jacques Claessens. Please prepare for a wistful lament written in blood.....
