This atmospheric choral piece is based on an old Nigerian cry that is taken up when a child is born: "Child, awaken unto thy day, the world awaits thee with joy!" Lorenz Maierhofer has taken down the cry of the midwife from its oral tradition and produced an impressive musical arrangement for choir. The call to awaken to the day is a spiritual metaphor for our daily rebirth in every new day. With African and English lyrics (Come and Wake up).
