These famous words are inscribed on the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty: Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. Emma Lazarus's timeless poem has been sensitively imagined for choir and piano, with optional French horn. A stirring opening solo blossoms into a beautifully crafted chorus with expressive tempo and dynamic shifts. Patriotic and inspiring.
