They Get It

this is a movement from my new choral piece Privilege, from a performance a few weeks ago in San Francisco by Volti (Robert Geary, director). the tenor soloist is David Kurtenbach.

text is by David Simon (writer/creator of The Wire and Treme), from an interview he gave with Bill Moyers last year:

we pretend to need them
we pretend to educate the kids
but we don’t
and they’re not foolish
they get it
