The text was co-written by the composer and the Singaporean vocal percussionist Cherie Chai, and celebrates the life-long relationships created and nurtured within the choral community and the priceless gift of shared choral experiences.About the Composer Dr Tracy Wong hails from Malaysia and is a choral conductor, music educator, composer, vocalist, and pianist.

Her music reflects the blend of different lived experiences, languages, and musical elements that continue to influence her compositional writing.
