Sigh is a piece for choir, with piano accompaniment and a baritone voice solo. This piece would be a great concert piece for high school and collegiate level ensembles.

Sigh was born out of the pain and turmoil of witnessing and experiencing the daily racism and systemic discrimination of minority groups in this world and in the United States. Sometimes it is difficult to express the intense trauma that comes with being a minority, and Sigh follows the journey of an individual holding in their feelings to a point where those feelings can no longer be contained. During the birth of this piece, stories of black deaths were nearly unavoidable and took a heavy toll on the black community. Sigh is a representation of the release that the community so desperately needs. It is important to note that this piece is driven by the hardships of racial minorities, thus it is preferred that the soloist be a person of color to better reflect the purpose of this piece.
