Inte kan jag utan gr\u00e5t
\nse ut \u00f6ver havet
\nsedan mina v\u00e4nner
\nsj\u00f6nk i djupet.
\nVidrigt \u00e4r mig det svarta hav

\n

No I cannot without weeping
\nGaze across the sea
\nSince my friends
\nSank to the depths.
\nHow I detest that black sea
\nand the pull of the crest,
\nthose prey to the waves
\ncause me grief.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

EMBRACE ME<\/span>\u00a0was composed for London Sinfonietta.
\nIt was premiered on 16 April 2008 in Queen Elizabeth Hall, London by the London Sinfonietta and Synergy Vocals, conducted by Pierre-Andr\u00e9 Valade.<\/p>\n

The piece is dedicated to those who lost their loved ones in the 2004 tsunami.<\/p>\n
