Christopher Tin conducts his choral work 'Waloyo Yamoni (We Overcome the Wind)', the climactic finale to his song cycle 'The Drop That Contained the Sea'. From the European premiere of 'The Drop that Contained the Sea' at 'The Music of Christopher Tin' concert, Cadogan Hall, London, July 19, 2016. Performed by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and featuring the Angel City Chorale, Prima Vocal Ensemble, and Lucis choirs. Soloists: Jimmer Bolden, Allie McNay. Commissioned by the Orchestra at St. Matthews, Pacific Palisades, CA. Sung in Lango, lyrics from a rainmaking litany.
Available to listen on all streaming and digital services. Vinyl for the original studio album (featuring the GRAMMY-winning Soweto Gospel Choir) is available at christophertin.com/store.html.
Lyrics:
Waloyo yamoni. (Waloyo.)
Wan wamito kot ochwe, oony akirok chutok
Oami! In, kot, alami ichwe. Ka i chwe, beber.
Ka monwa olelo (ber)
Ka atino oleo (ber)
Ka awobi owero (ber)
Ka adwong olelo (ber)
Eryamita ka jigi jigi.
Eryam, alech alelech.
Ka kot adok Burutok
Ka yamo adok Burutok
Ilech.
Alech alelech.
Ilech. Opong.
Ilech i dula.
Kalwa opong dero.
English Translation:
We overcome this wind. (We overcome.)
We desire the rain to fall, that it be poured in showers quickly.
Ah! Thou rain, I adjure thee fall. If thou rainest, it is well.
If our women rejoice (it is well)
If the children rejoice (it is well)
If the young men sing (it is well)
If the aged rejoice (it is well)
A drizzling confusion.
Confusion, a torrent in flow.
If the rain veers to the south
If the wind veers to the south
A torrent in flow.
Overflowing. May it fill.
An overflowing in the granary.
May our grain fill the granaries.

I mean, “If music be the food of love, play on, Give me excess of it that, surfeiting, The appetite may sicken and so die”…and since a song like this cannot die…it is up for a long journey on my device.

So I have watched this video an embarrassing (or not) amount of times. I had no idea what they were actually saying. It was just beautiful music, the vocals, instruments and down to the conducting. This man made you feel the music. I always thought it had to be some uplifting song that gave you hope. Then today, I watch it and it gave me the English translation and it made me feel this song again like it was the first time I’d ever heard it. To see that it’s all actually about, almost like a rain dance song. Absolutely a beautiful song and expressed by this group so well. But also such an eye opener to a different culture, that a beautiful song as this is, is also just a prayer for the rain to come. Almost like a hymn. Ok, time to go listen again. 😅😊

Four years was when it released and that's how long it took me a Ugandan to even hear it. I think our media houses need some serious lessons. Thanks for this piece Mr. Christopher.

I'm 19, I've danced ballet for 15 years and I have spent literally most of my life listening to classical music, choirs, and opera. I have to say, I can't with this piece. It moves something inside me I did not even know existed. It's like the sun starting to kiss every inch of the earth in the morning, a drop of rain subtly touching a leaf and the warm breeze that comes with spring. Everyone should listen to it. I was bamboozled with the 30 seconds they show on reels. But NO ONE could have prepared me for this. Kudos to everyone involved. You have achieved something I never knew was possible. You managed to put the creation of life and wonderfulness of life in just 13 minutes of magic. Amazing job. I will listen to it as long as I am alive because this is a feeling I want to keep coming back to. Hope everyone who participated is having a wonderful and delightful life.

They beckon him out and encourage him to believe. To believe again. There simply isn't enough time to express. Thank you for your words. The cinders of a soul that has known life and survived breathes through every choice deployed in every word which you have uttered here today.

I think the reason I cry when i listen to this despite not knowing the culture (outside of the research I've done about the piece) is because this is what peace looks like. Someone said in the comments that if theres anything that we want aliens to see first its this and I completely agree. Christopher you have shown the world that humanity can be beautiful.

Nobody asked, but in no particular order, these are things I love about being able to watch this performance: 1. The soloists are incredible - the power in their voices really shines and that bit at the climax where they sing simultaneously for the first time is SO good! They blend so well, and clearly make a great team. 2. The little exchanges and glances between the conductor and the soloists - you look like you're having so much fun in general but I love being able to see that you're about to bring in a soloist for their next bit by watching your eyeline and expressions. 3. The percussionist who pops up with a new instrument every five minutes with a plain expression like it's nothing, in a way that kind of reminds me of a bugs bunny sketch? He's clearly very good at what he does, and I know percussionists generally do have to play multiple instruments in a piece, but this one in particular makes me smile.

My wife and I are trying to have a child together through ivf. It has already been a difficult couple of years now which made me emotionally numb. Trying to stay strong for my wife whilest protecting myself from the struggles created a thick layer around my heart. Last week we had a miscariage and i couldn't cry anymore or have some other kind of emotion. Every now and then I come back to this masterpiece. It always manages to peel the layers away and frees my emotions. My own little desire the rain to fall. Beber.

The joy that I can see on the faces of the singers like they know they pulled it off! ❤ed it even more because of it!! It is a great job to sing a song that isn’t easy at all but to sing it with such joy on the faces and sending that joy into the hall is craftsmanship ❤!!

I am not a religious person, but this is what I believe I would hear if I died and went straight to Heaven. I cannot even start to imagine how a human being was able to compose this. My country - Ukraine - is at war now, and I listen to this divine music at night, because it gives me the strength to go on. Thank you, Maestro.

Listening to this in my room and my mom asks...what is that?! We are all connected as humans. It doesn't matter what religion, race, political affiliation, sports team...we all can resonate with this. That is the human experience and connection. I love you all no matter where you come from and what you've done. ❤

I sat in silence, viewing a minute TikTok version of this song, stunned and drawn to this joy coming through the clip of a performance. I came to KZfaq for the full performance, and the restoration, joy and warmth that it has brought my soul is overwhelming. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. ❤️
