Help me identify this piece for voice choir - about refugees

[EscapeFrom]

I know it's about refugees, and I think the person who wrote it may have been eastern european, and it's for a voice choir.

It sounds like 12/8, it's a soaring tune, if you see what I mean, and it's very haunting. In a major key.

help!

..

please it's driving me nuts

what kind of choir?
not from A Day In A Life, is it?

Is it Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves by Verdi?

where might you have heard it?
were they singing in English?

cissycharlton BINGO!

That's the one! I think it's so beautiful - sorry my clues were crappy

I am so pleased to have helped you; your clues weren't crappy at all.

I do wonder though, how I can pluck information like this out of my head when very often I can't even remember the names of my own Dc!
