Strength In Kindness

"Strength in Kindness," composed by Dr. Derrick Fox, is ideal for developing tenor-bass ensembles. This piece is particularly suited for concerts that emphasize empathy, character-building, or social-emotional learning. Drawing from an original text that centers on the quiet power of compassion, this composition explores themes of resilience, connection, and emotional strength, offering singers opportunities to grow musically through expressive phrasing, dynamic contrast, and ensemble balance. Part of the Foundations in Song choral series, music that supports pedagogical goals while remaining accessible to choirs of all levels, "Strength in Kindness" reflects Fox's distinctive style: heartfelt, musically intentional, and deeply connected to both singer and audience. It will make a strong addition to festival performances, theme-based concerts, or programs centered on community and kindness.
