Belonging by Amy Gordon (LYRIC VIDEO)

Belonging was commissioned as part of a consortium of multiple choirs for multiple voicings, including SATB, SA, TB, and Unison & Piano options. The text and music of Belonging explore the universal need to belong, whether that is part of a friend group, a community, or society in general. The fear of not belonging can be so strong and paralyzing, it is important that we actively engage in body language, gestures, and speech that create welcoming spaces for those who long to join. A direct message of “You belong here. Please join me.” can be the deciding factor in someone finally feeling like they belong. This piece is suitable for any Mixed-Voice ensemble and would fit well in any concert about friendship, community, and love.

Sometimes I feel I don’t belong anywhere. Where do I fit in? Is it with you? Is it with them? Sometimes I feel I don’t fit in with anyone. Can I sit down? Is every table full? My feet won’t move. Why am I frozen still? CHORUS 1 Will you save an empty seat for me At the gathering table? Will you keep an open door for me If you’re willing and able? Gesture wildly, smile widely, Call me over loud and strong. Tell me I’m welcome and I belong. VERSE 2 Where do you belong? It is here. In this room. I’ll make it clear, you don’t have to assume. Where do you fit in? It’s with me. It’s with us. Come as you are and that is enough. Please come sit down. No need to hesitate. Pull up a chair. You’ve been worth the wait. CHORUS 2 I will save an empty seat for you At the gathering table. I will keep an open door for you As long as I am able. I’ll gesture wildly, smile widely, Call you over loud and strong. You are welcome and you belong. PERFORMANCE CREDITS: Conductor: Jared Pugh Choir: San Dimas High School Chamber Choir Piano: Audrey Jiang
