Choral Choir,Choral (SSAA) - Level 5 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1397081 Composed by Stephen Smith. 21st Century,A Cappella,Classical. 9 pages. Stephen Smith #980409. Published by Stephen Smith (A0.1397081). This richly-expressive setting, for soprano solo and a cappella SSAA choir, of a much-loved poem written in 1928 by a young Elizabeth Bishop, is a reworking of my earlier setting of this poem for TTBB chorus and string quartet (also available on this site, under the title Sonnet). The treble version was created for Vancouver's award-winning women's choir, Elektra, to perform with the eminent Canadian soprano Suzie LeBlanc when she was Elektra's featured guest artist at concerts in May of 2019. The accompanying audio file, which is used with permission, is a live recording of the work's première, under the direction of Morna Edmundson. Duration: ca. 5 minutes.
