major. English. Manmohan
Ghose.
Manmohan
Ghose was a professor,
poet, and brilliant
scholar from Eastern
India in the late 19th
century. He was educated
in London, and was one of
the first poets
originally from India to
publish poetry in
English. A Lament is one
of his earliest published
poems; it progresses with
vivid, scenic language
from lullaby to permanent
goodbye. Much later in
life, Manmohan
experienced a series of
family tragedies that
gave him a unique
perspective on grief.
After returning to India
to mourn his father's
death and eventually the
passing of his wife, he
never again made it back
to England as he had
wished to before his own
death. The text of this
piece has been paired
with a mixolydian modal
structure and a blend of
musical elements designed
to invoke a nostalgic,
dream-like atmosphere. In
the words of the
composer: I like to think
of this piece as a
metaphorical hall of
mirrors. The original
'image' of the melody
becomes the source for
multiple echoes and
imitations that blossom
into layers of polyphonic
movement. As a nod to the
poet's birth place, notes
reminiscent of the
kan-swar grace note
technique of Hindustani
classical music add
ornamental interest to
the piano and voices.
This piece functions as
an excellent educational
introduction or further
study into the concept of
modes. When presenting
this piece to a choir,
directors may find it
helpful to identify G as
the tonal center and
follow up with an
explanation that G
mixolydian has the same
key signature as the key
of C, because it
naturally has no sharps
or flats. Manmohan

You'll

popular potluck side dish
the same way again! This
quirky song originally
appeared in the 1944 MGM
musical Broadway Rhythm.
Kirby's authentic
arrangement retains the
characteristic sound and
style of the time period,
including bright jazz
harmonies and swing
rhythms. An add-on
section near the end
introduces a whole picnic
of musical goodies before
packing it up for a big
finish!
