The effective choral setting is based on texts by the Latvian national poet Velta Toma whose works are characterized by her having lived in exile in Canada for decades. At the heart of her Latvian Prayer, too, is the yearning for love, family ties and a certain melancholy patriotism. The full symphonic sound of the catchy choral piece is not only due to the organ accompaniment, but also to the division into eight voice groupings.
Instrumentation : choir (SATB) and organ
