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

Medieval Carol.
The
text of this poem is from
the Trinity Carol Roll,
an English manuscript
housed at the Wren
Library of Trinity
College, Cambridge. It is
originally in the Norfolk
dialect of Middle English
but has been modernized
for use in this setting.
Also, it's macaronic,
meaning it combines words
from two languages, the
other being Latin which
was in use by the church
when this carol was
written. The Latin
phrases come from
different parts of the
Advent/Christmas
liturgies; a sequence
called
Laetabundus, the
title of an Introit
antiphon called
Gaudeamus, and
the shepherds response in
the gospel of Luke 2:15,
Transeamus.

compares the Virgin Mary
to a rose. She has a

women in being chosen as
the mother of Jesus, and
likewise the rose has a

flowers surpassing them
in complexity and beauty.

none are as important as
the dramatic climax in
the fourth verse where
the shepherds along with
all the angels in heaven
proclaim Gloria in

There's
nothing quite like the
excitement of opening
night, captured
brilliantly here in the
showstopper from Cole
Porter's Kiss Me, Kate.
Anticipation gradually
builds as the bubbly tune
passes from voice to
voice in a crescendo,
eventually erupting into
the title line of the
song. A terrific
selection for staging or
choreography, smartly
arranged for developing
choirs!

A Brown Bird
Singing , published in
1922, is second only to
The Roses of Picardy in
popularity among
Woodâ??s vast oeuvre.
With lyrics by composer
Royden Barrie, the
romantic words are well
matched to the touching
melody. The song has been
recorded many times since
it appeared, including a
version by jazz
songstress Peggy Lee and
one arranged for zither.
Haydn Wood (1882-1959)
earned his reputation as
a giant of British light
music in the twentieth
century through a
prolific career that
encompassed performance
as Violin soloist and
conductor and as well as
composer of some of the
nationâ??s favourite
melodies. Wood was not
only was a gifted and
popular creator of
Orchestral works
andmusical theatre, but
also the composer more
than 200 songs, many of
them the greatest hits of
their era. A Brown Bird
Singing has been arranged
for SSA female chorus by
Felton Rapley.

Adapted
from Jay's popular
American Folk Songs for
Solo Singers, this
remarkable new choral
arrangement works
beautifully. The languid
minor-key melody is
passed from soloist to
choir and part to part,
often accompanied by
mournful background
vocals. Not difficult to
perform, but
appropriately
weighty.

A light
gospel sound inhabits
this offering that begins
in an easy-going manner
with a solo or the
men’s voices.
Before long, the choir
joins a robust refrain
featuring a
dynamic—but not
impossibly
high—soprano
descant. Certainly a
consideration for the
smaller (SAB) choir that
has a lot of passion to
share with the
assembly.

This poem
has long been a favorite
of singers due to its
deep passion and
expressive imagery, not
to mention the warm
vowels at the end of each
line. In this artistic
setting, Greg Gilpin
incorporates a
contemporary harmonic
palette, expressive tempo
nuances, and elegant
dynamic shading to form a
colorful garden of sound.
The final chord suggests
the rose/thorn quality of
love, as singers sustain
sweet dissonance. Give
special consideration to
the S.S.A. voicing---the
romantic text may have
great appeal to your
ladies.
