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.

UPC: 038081574110. English. Words by H. P. Nichols.

Quiet, crisp lines are echoed from voice to voice and punctuated with chilling whispers in this rhythmic setting told from winter's point of view. A mixed meter refrain creates a sense of surprise when ice locks the fountains and chains the river, and a layered counterpoint section builds to a frosty celebration of the season.

Sara Teasdale's poignant commentary on the challenges and rewards of love is the foundation of this sensitive choral setting. Strong homophonic writing puts a focus on the words, while scattered harmonic suspensions and gentle ebbs and flows of tempo invite a deep understanding of the text. These are the gifts of love.

UPC: 038081513393. English.

This sturdy original is composed in the style of a traditional spiritual. A symbolic text leads to crossing metaphoric River Jordan as the music recalls songs from early America. Opens with brief solos, builds to a hand clapping, almost a cappella bridge, and concludes only after full choral harmonies fade and voices unite on a single pitch.

Alfred, Lord Tennyson's comforting text is beautifully set as a lullaby for SSA voices. The natural rocking motion suggests not only cradling the little one, but also the waters of the western sea, from which father may one day return. Arch-shaped phrases and carefully tuned cadences will highlight the stress and release of the musical line.

UPC: 038081561615. English. William Blake.

Captivating. Adventurous. With just a hint of danger. This feisty minor key setting of William Blake's gripping poem immediately garners attention with a ferocious fanfare. Then a jaunty, detached piano motive (which later becomes a choral counterline), leads to contemporary choral writing firmly rooted in traditional techniques. Angular intervals and syncopated agitation provide energy, vim, and vigor. Guaranteed to be a highlight of rehearsals, concerts, contests, and festivals.

A legato English language section in the middle provides contrast before an energetic return to the original material. Highly recommended for concert or contest!
