A Lament for the Innocent

Version I: For one amplified high soprano and twenty-four musicians with tape

This piece is both a protest and a lament. I conceived it during the period of parent-child separations during the first Trump regime and wrote the work during the terrible and horrendous events in the Middle East which came to a head in 2023/2024 – with so many deaths and crimes against humanity affecting so many innocent people. I am an Israeli-born composer and am protesting intensely and in pain against the killing of so many innocent people by our army and the fact that there are such a huge number of dead children, children without parents and children without limbs in Gaza. I thought that this piece would be a loud scream – it ended up more like a lament. Chaya Czernowin
