Repertoire Note
The final track on Collier's four-part, genre-bending, award-winning, and world-conquering Djesse album series, World O World is a seven minute choral opus, recorded in partnership with Jason Max Ferdinand and the Aeolians of Oakwood University. Hymn-like throughout, the moving lyrics and harmonic language crescendo into an astonishing climax worthy of being the current denouement on the celebrated 30-year old's remarkable catalogue of work.
World O World is available in two versions, the original voicing, as well as a simplified edition approved by the composer, which makes the work more approachable to smaller and/or less advanced choirs.
