Work Overview
based on a short chant by Hildegard von Bingen (1098-1179)
Unde quocumque veninetes perrexerunt,
Velut cum gaudio celestis paradisi suscepte sunt, Quia in
religione morum
Honorifice apparuerunt.
therefore, wherever they arrived in their wanderings there was a warm welcome as we shall receive in Paradise because through their devotion their great faith was apparent
This work has elements of improvisation. The length of shakuhachi, and therefore the key, is up to the tessatura of the singer.
Anne has also published a solo version for a singing shakuhachi performer under the title Wherever The Go
