Legacy – SAB

In celebration of a school’s anniversary, this inspirational work by Sherry Blevins acknowledges not only the legacy of the building itself, but also that of a beloved mentor and teacher. In a lyrical style for SAB voices and a supportive piano accompaniment, singers and audiences alike will love the heartfelt messages of gratitude for those who have paved the way in this work saying, “Here’s to those who paved the way, who molded lived like molding clay, who carried our dreams while they gently led.” It ends with a reminder that the singers will carry the legacy themselves saying, “And our legacy will live in every brick and stone… and in every beating heart. It will stand the test of time and remind us once again that one day the legacy will be our song.” Choose this work to honor a teacher or mentor or to remind students that they have a responsibility to carry those dreams that were inspired by their mentors as they move on to another school or after their graduation.
