Good
friends see the best in
us. They tend to downplay
our faults while
applauding our strengths.
In short, they encourage
us to be the best we can
be, maybe even a little
more. The text of
Paint Me was
born out of the desire to
be that person my best
friend thinks I am. To
Mary Jo, my sister and
best friend. May I really
be that person you see
and love. In setting the
text of Paint Me
to music, I tried to let
the cadence of the words
dictate the rhythm of the
music. Use rubato, word
stress and syllabic
stress to enhance this.
Remember, no two eighth
notes are alike, so dont
be afraid to let the
interior part of a phrase
move along, while
relaxing the beginning
and ending. I would
recommend a straight tone
as opposed to vibrato for
the held notes, since the
accompaniment plays
around with other
harmonies while choral
chords are being held.
Diction is so important
in this song. You have a
great opportunity to
paint the words, as well
as making every idea
understood. Enjoy adding
the color and shading to
make this piece of art
your own.
