## Summary

Caged Bird choral octavo sheet music for TTBB voices and piano, featuring text by Maya Angelou and music by Mark Hayes.

## Description

A folk-like setting of Maya Angelou's empowering poem, which compares a bird's longing to be liberated with that of all people. Hayes chooses a minor key with plenty of harmonic tension and a walking tempo that suggests the footsteps of those who have come before. The final Picardy third is the ultimate symbol of freedom. This is the second movement from the song cycle Like Dust I Rise .
