This is a cantata divided into four scenes. It is intended for standard mixed choirs, children’s choir singing in unison and pianos.
The tree is the main character of this cantata. He is the witness of life stages. He is standing there during the summer, carrying many fruits. He is standing there for St. John’s Eve. He is standing there during fall, after his foliage left. He hears the exhausting minors’ works deep down the earth. He is standing there during winter, when he is completely stripped. He is standing there until being uprooted in order to build a supermarket. In spring, he rises again through his seeds. That’s how the poetic atmosphere depicts the cycle of years.
