About the work:  PATH reflects on the phenomenon of the Camino de Santiago — the ancient Catholic pilgrimage route across northern Spain. Composed by Joby Talbot for a cappella choral ensemble, the text comprises excerpts from historical and sacred documents in several languages, along with original material by poet Robert Dickinson. The transformation experienced by those who travel this path is not unlike the experience of making art. Both artists and spiritual seekers are searching for meaning – giving ourselves over to the pursuit of life’s purpose.  https://seancurrancompany.com
