This composition was named for a gamer friend of the composer, Daniel Hay, and for her name-sake, Sorcha Lawhir, who was probably fictional by author Traci Harding who's character Cadfer raped Sorcha Lawhir. Sorcha then killed herself rather than live with the consequences. The composer reports that the first time he heard of the story he was told it was historical and that Sorcha Lawhir was raped by the brother of her husband from which she leapt from the castle walls. Whether historcial or fictional the very concept of rape is abhorent and this piece is dedicated to the soul of Sorcha Lawhir. The piece is ranged for Soprano, Alto, or Tenor Recorder, or Oboe, Clarinet and Flute and is voiced as Oboe in the attached sound file.
