The Gravity of Kindness is a captivating musical composition by Howard Goodall, set to the poem "Kindness" by Naomi Shihab Nye. This stunning arrangement is designed for SATB choir, accompanied by a small orchestra or piano with an optional soprano solo. Composed in memory of Cathy Bereznicki, a long-standing member of the Addison Singers, The Gravity of Kindness explores the profound themes of kindness and love.

The composition is structured around two lullabies: the Mexican "Arrorró mi niño" and the well-known "Coventry Carol." These timeless melodies serve as the foundation for the piece, supported by the universal themes of unconditional love and the transformative power of kindness.

Goodall's musical style is contemporary, reflective, and uplifting, making this work versatile and suitable for a wide range of performances. While it is particularly well-suited for Christmas concerts, its uplifting spirit and message make it equally appropriate for any time of the year. Additionally, orchestral parts are available for those who wish to expand the musical ensemble.

The Gravity of Kindness is a testament to the power of music to convey emotions, inspire, and bring people together. It serves as a reminder of the importance of kindness in our daily lives and the positive impact it can have on individuals and communities. Through its beautiful melodies and powerful lyrics, this composition encourages us to embrace compassion, empathy, and the transformative power of love.
