Ode on Intimations of Immortality

Brady Allred’s Ode on Intimations of Immortality is a mysterious and expressive setting of William Wordsworth’s meditation on birth, memory, and the soul’s origin in God. Written with rich color, careful attention to text, and a powerful climactic arc, the work offers accomplished choirs an opportunity to experience beautifully balanced divisi writing. Brief but profound, this concert work is a compelling artistic statement for advanced ensembles seeking repertoire of depth and spiritual resonance.
