She Who Makes Her Meaning Clear

- from the DARE TO BE POWERFUL choral series -

Part invocation, part call to action, part celebration, this setting of a quote by Audre Lorde was commissioned by MUSE: Cincinnati's Women's Choir to commemorate the choir's 25th anniversary season. Toward the end of her life, Lorde took the name "Gamba Adisa," in an African naming ceremony; it means "Warrior: She who makes her meaning clear. "

She Who Makes Her Meaning Clear

quote by Audre Lorde (1934-1992)

Gamba Adisa!

When I dare to be powerful,

to use my strength in the service of my vision

then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.

Gamba Adisa!
