Hungarian Folk.
In
2014, Chanticleer
commissioned me to make a
new arrangement of the
Hungarian-Romani folk
song Jarba, Mare Jarba
for their 2014 touring
program. Passed down
orally through the Romani
communities, this
beautiful folk song, with
text in a language called
Beas (beh-osh), speaks of
a deep longing to visit
one's homeland, a place
where the singer can
never return. Chanticleer
consists of twelve men
whose vocal ranges span
from low bass to high
soprano, equivalent to
the range of a mixed
choir of women and men. I
composed slow sections of
original material to
represent the singers'
longing to return home;
these are interspersed
with the folk song's
traditional fast
sections. The
incorporated shouts and
calls in the score are
typically found in the
performance of Central
European folk songs. I
hope you enjoy singing
this new version of
Jarba, Mare Jarba that
contains all of the vigor
and excitement of the
Chanticleer version.
PERFORMANCE NOTES All
spoken sounds (indicated
by x noteheads) should be
performed by individuals.
Feel free to elaborate
with more sounds of your
own in the tradition of
Eastern European folk
music. If the piece is
memorized, feel free to
experiment with clapping
on the off-beats of m. 93
to the end. TEXT

Garrop's music is
centered on dramatic and
lyrical storytelling. The
sharing of stories is a
defining element of our
humanity; we strive to
share with others the
experiences and concepts
that we find compelling.
She shares stories by
taking audiences on sonic
journeys - some simple
and beautiful, while
others are complicated
and dark - depending on
the needs and dramatic
shape of the story.
Garrop served as the
first Emerging Opera
Composer of Chicago Opera
Theater's Vanguard
Program. She also held a
3-year
composer-in-residence
position with the
Champaign-Urbana Symphony
Orchestra, funded by New
Music USA and the League
of American Orchestras.
She has received numerous
awards and grants
including an Arts and
Letters Award in Music
from the American Academy
of Arts and Letters,

commissions, along with
prizes from competitions
sponsored by the Detroit
Symphony Orchestra, Civic
Orchestra of Chicago,
Omaha Symphony, New
England Philharmonic,
Boston Choral Ensemble,
Utah Arts Festival, and
Pittsburgh New Music
Ensemble. She is a
Cedille Records artist;
her works are
commercially available on
more than ten additional
labels. Her catalog
covers a wide range, with
works for orchestra,
opera, oratorio, wind
ensemble, choir, art
song, various sized
chamber ensembles, and
works for solo
instruments. Notable
commissions include My
Dearest Ruth for soprano
and piano with text by
Martin Ginsburg, the
husband of the late
Supreme Court Justice
Ruth Bader Ginsburg, The
Transformation of Jane
Doe for Chicago Opera
Theater, The Battle for
the Ballot for the

Glorious Mahalia for the

Garrop previously served
as composer-in-residence
with the Albany Symphony

and as well as on faculty
of the Fresh Inc Festival

composition and
orchestration full-time

680160919789. Key: Bb
major. English. Siegfried
Sasson.
Everyone
suddenly burst out
singing; And I was filled
with such delight As
prisoned birds must find
in freedom... These
opening lines to Everyone
Sang by the British war
poet Siegfried Sassoon
feel as relevant today as
they did when the poem
was first published in
1919. It was after the
end of World War I and
these words capture so
much of the collective
exhilaration, relief, and
pure joy about the Great
War finally coming to an
end. And yet Sassoon
himself felt none of that
when he wrote this poem.
In his own words, he was
feeling dull-minded and
depressed. Perhaps his
time in the trenches was
still too recent. One of
the reasons the creative
arts are so powerful is
that a poet like Sassoon
(or a painter like Van
Gogh or a composer like
Mahler) can take their
own feelings of deep
sadness or pain and
transform them into
something beautiful, even
uplifting. Everyone Sang
is a celebration of the
promise that things can
get better, that there
are things worth looking
forward to. The
poem itself has so much
rhythm and musicality.
The appearance of
suddenly in the first
line of each verse gives
those verses a rush of
energy. Attention to the
crescendo in measure 7,
and again in measure 37,
from mf to f will help
the listener experience
that rush. There are
expressive opportunities
with so many of the
poet's bold choices of
action words - burst,
winging, and shaken. Then
there's alliteration - a
poetic device that can be
overdone, but Sassoon
strikes a wonderful
balance. Suddenly/singing
(measures 6-7 and 10-11)
Find/freedom (measure
21-22) Winging/wildly
(measure 23) Setting/sun
(measures 47-49)
Was/wordless (measures
65-75) Give these
alliterations just a hint
of emphasis (without
overdoing) to bring out
the natural rhythm of the
text. And just as
O is set apart in the
poem by punctuation, I
wanted the musical
setting - in measure 57 -
to honor that feeling of
wonder - ...O, but
Everyone Was a bird; and
the song was wordless;
the singing will Never be
done. Friends, there is
so much good ahead, so
much to be excited about.
May the singing never be
done. Everyone
