Innocence & Experience is a musical setting of four William Blake poems from his works, Songs of Innocence and Songs of Experience, for two-part TB men’s chorus with piano accompaniment. The song set represents a life cycle, first with a lullaby, moving next to a spirited and youthful dance, continuing to the dreamlike longing of maturity, and concluding with the solemn and dark acceptance of death.

Instrumentation: B-clarinet Tenor trombone Percussion: triangle, 2 small cymbals, tambourine, snare drum, bass drum Piano Mezzo-soprano POEMA DE NATAL - Vinicius de Moraes Para isso fomos feitos: Para lembrar e ser lembrados, Para chorar e fazer chorar, Para enterrar os nossos mortos -- Por isso temos braços longos para os adeuses, Mãos para colher o que foi dado, Dedos para cavar a terra. Assim será nossa vida; Uma tarde sempre a esquecer, Uma estrêla a se apagar na treva, Um caminho entre dois túmulos -- Por isso precisamos velar, Falar baixo, pisar leve, ver A noite dormir em silêncio. Não há muito que dizer: Uma canção sobre um berço, Um verso, talvez, de amor, Uma prece por quem se vai -- Mas que essa hora não esqueça E que por ela os nossos corações Se deixem, graves e simples. Pois para isso fomos feitos: Para a esperança no milagre, Para a participacão da poesia, Para ver a face da morte -- De repente, nunca mais esperaremos ... Hoje a noite é jovem; da morte apenas Nascemos, imensamente.

In Memoriam, A.H.H., Op. 80 by Ryan LeGrand.

This song cycle, written for Baritone and Piano, is a setting of portions of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poetry cycle In Memoriam, A.H.H. which was written over a period of about 20 years. Tennyson's daughter's fiance was killed and Tennyson wrote the cycle of about 150 poems over 20 years as a grieving process. In this cycle, I've chosen parts of 5 poems that go through the stages of grief, including the famous Tis' better to have loved and lost than never to have lost at all. The complete cycle in approximately 25-30 minutes in duration. The piano and vocal score is 33 pages. 

1. Prologue
2. Fair ship, that from the Italian shore
3. My own dim life
4. Tis' better to have loved and lost
5. Forgive

Poem text:

The cloudless day is richer at its close;
A golden glory settles on the lea;
Soft, stealing shadows hint of cool repose
To mellowing landscape, and to calming sea.

And in that nobler, gentler, lovelier light,
The soul to sweeter, loftier bliss inclines;
Freed from the noonday glare, the favour’d sight
Increasing grace in earth and sky divines.

But ere the purest radiance crowns the green,
Or fairest lustre fills th’ expectant grove,
The twilight thickens, and the fleeting scene
Leaves but a hallow’d memory of love!

Based on Friedrich Hölderlin. Composed by Gyorgy Ligeti. Downloadable. Duration 3 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q779398. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q779398).

German.

Those familiar with Ligeti’s vocal compositions will be surprised by this seemingly simple and plain musical miniature after a poem by Hölderlin. Even though composed during the same period as the Nonsense Madrigals” with their labyrinthine rhythms and their novel diatonic harmonies, the piece harks back to the 19th century as far as Schubert in its use of traditional means to convey the striking atmosphere and mellow summery mood of the poem.

SKU: A0.761688

Composed by Debra E. Stempien and Gregory H. Turner. Children,Contemporary,Instructional,Standards. Octavo. 6 pages. Standard Time #6070293. Published by Standard Time (A0.761688).

This setting of Robert Louis Stevenson's poem, The Wind, from A Child's Garden of Verses, is composed for two-part SA treble chorus with piano accompaniment. The extended tonal harmonies ask students to hear and resolve suspended and non-chord pitches within easily accessible thirds and sixths, while Part I can help develop range for the higher voices.  In terms of text, Stevenson’s poem provides mature lyrics for young musicians as well as an opportunity for cross-discipline literary learning.  A current and respected choral director who reviewed the piece referred to the piano accompaniment as fun to play and varied nicely.  In response to the piece as a whole, she also said, I do think the young choral world can use more challenging pieces..

SKU: S9.Q7094

For Violoncello Solo and 13 Solo Strings. Composed by Bertold Hummel. This edition: study score. Music Of Our Time. Downloadable, study score. Op. 80. Duration 25 minutes. Schott Music - Digital #Q7094. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q7094).

Hummel's piece for solo violoncello and 13 strings follows Hermann Hesse's famous poem 'Stufen' ('Steps') with regard to form and content. Hummel, a cellist himself, arranges the solo part with playing techniques and tone colours that are typical of the instrument. The work begins and ends with a perfect fifth which sets a clear, concise motif. Short phrases in distinctive bowing patterns and harmonics determine the intensive dialogue between solo instrument and the group of 13 string instruments. At the end, the tension leads to an all-explanatory B-A-C-H theme: an unmistakable homage to the old master.
