Composer / Arranger Notes:
The SSA voicing of kahkiyaw oskâyak (All the Young People) was commissioned by Ottawa’s OrKidstra’s social development program for their end-of-year, virtual celebration in 2019. kahkiyaw oskâyak honours the younger generation and blesses and guides our future leaders in their journey as they sing in unity.
Woodland Cree Text:
