Composer Notes: 

  "An Ever-Fixed Mark" was written for the new music ensemble, C4: The Choral Composer/Conductor Collective for their February 2009 "Shakespeare Settings" concert. This piece is a setting of Sonnet 116. I composed this in an attempt to express the depth of what "love" means to me in the context of the sonnet, a beautiful text that describes a lasting love beyond all things.
