“Where Quiet plays alone, sits and dreams, falls asleep.” Craig Mason took this brilliant text and set it to equally brilliant music, understanding the personification of “Quiet” that was artistically crafted in the poem. The reviews are in - this is an exceptionally strong choice for any a cappella choir!

The composer, chorus and organist Janusz Krzysztof Korczak, who was born in Krakow in 1994, was awarded the 3rd prize at the International Composition Competition Musica Sacra Nova 2016 for his choral piece Cum enim quietum silentium contineret omnia, .... This sophisticated Latin-language choral work is designed for four four-part ensembles (SATB / SATB / SATB / SATB) a cappella,for which the Polish composer delivers an exact arrangement. The Korczak, which is divided into a number of musical thematic sections, for which Korczak foresees a maximum of four singers per voice within the individual ensembles, has, according to his own statement, musically implemented a kind of programmatic visualization of the underlying words from Liber Sapientiae 18, 14-15b searched. And so there are lecture notes such as delicate or sharp whispering, singing with closed and open mouth, ad libitum to declaiming parts, a general pause with explicit seconds, strong dynamic accents and an abrupt descending Glissando at the end of thestriking features of this 16-voice A -cappella-choral work. Ideal literature for singers with a high degree of experimentation.

Four poems sharing a common motif of 'Night' provide the texts for my choral cycle Nocturnes, the American Choral Directors Association's commissioned work for its 2005 national convention. For Rilke's atmospheric Sa nuit d'ete,several melodic themes are supported by dense, colorful harmonies in both the choral and piano parts, leading to a climactic section where all are combined and stated simultaneously. Neruda's Soneto de la Noche, from his CienSonetos de Amor, speaks of an eternal love that transcends death while reaffirming life. My a cappella setting of this gorgeous poem is predominantly quiet, serene and folk-like, utilizing direct harmonies accompanying long,lyrical vocal lines. Agee's wondrous Sure on this Shining Night is set much like a song from the American musical theater, a genre for which I have held a life-long esteem. Rilke's poignant Voici le soir recalls the opening bellsounds and jazz-tinged chords of the first movement and serves as an epilogue, quietly concluding this cycle of night songs as darkness descends. --Morten Lauridsen.
