Original

The Divine Image - cello part composed by Robert Kyr. 1952-. For cello. General. Moderately difficult. Cello part. 8 pages. Published by Ione Press. EC.6389. "The opening line of William Blake's poem The Divine Image is quite striking. 'To Mercy, Pity, Peace and Love. All pray in their distress. ' In many ways, this line describes the challenging times in which we live, while the final two lines suggest hope for the future. 'Where Mercy, Love and Pity dwell. There God is dwelling too. ' Even during the most troubling times, the divine qualities of mercy, love and pity are alive within humanity, suggesting a transformation from darkness to light. I composed this work to celebrate the joyful spirit and music-making of the Pacific Youth Choir, as inspired by its director, Mia Hall Savage.
