680160691098. The Garden
of the Finzi-Continis
novel by Giorgio
Bassani.
Based on
Bassani’s 1962 novel,
THE GARDEN OF THE
FINZI-CONTINIS dramatizes
the true story of a
prosperous Jewish
family’s disruptions
and consequences from
state-mandated
antisemitism in Italy
during World War II.
Gordon describes the
opera as “romantic,
sun-drenched, and
cataclysmic, all at the
same time.” This
dramatically topical and
personal grand opera
premiered at New York
City Opera and National
Yiddish Theatre
Folksbiene to rave
reviews in 2022. Chris
Ruel wrote in OperaWire,
“I have chosen Ricky
Ian Gordon and Michael
Korie’s THE GARDEN OF
THE FINZI-CONTINIS as my
favorite opera of
2022.”. At one
point, in 2008, I was
walking down 72nd Street,
and I passed the video
store, (this is when
there were video stores)
and I thought to myself,
I wonder if Kevin (my
partner) has ever seen
The Garden of the
Finzi-Continis? which was
always one of my favorite
movies. My reaction when
we watched it that night
was unlike any other time
I had seen it. I was
wrenched, sobbing,
inconsolable. My heart
felt like the autumn
leaves we see blowing
through the garden at the
end of the movie. It
seemed immediately that
this had to be my next
opera. I called Michael
Korie, and we both bought
the Bassani novel and
read it. We settled on
it. It felt clear that we
both had a collective
story to tell through
it.Because this opera is
so close to both of our
hearts, it is dedicated
to our fathers.It is not
only that The Garden of
the Finzi-Continis is a
Holocaust story that
makes it so resonant for
me, though obviously this
is no small matter, but
the tragedy of people
trying to live their
lives, or actually living
them, their petty
disappointments, their
heartbreaks, against the
backdrop of total
catastrophe… that makes
it so moving. They cannot
possibly imagine what
will befall them, but we
know… and this makes
their every move
fascinating and
devastating… like
watching moths under a
glass. It is romantic,
sun-drenched and
cataclysmic, all at the
same time.This is why I
had to write it.

Texts from Aurelius
Prudentius Clemens,

When
Tim Sharp, Executive
Director of the ACDA,
offered Stucky the Brock
Memorial Commission, it
was decided that the text
would commemorate the
50th anniversary of the
assassination of John F.
Kennedy, since the annual
convention would take
place in Dallas of that
year. To that end, Stucky
chose four different but
pertinent texts to honor
the occasion, although
never referencing JFK by
name. Take Him, Earth was
premiered at the ACDA
convention in March,
2013. Originally scored
for chorus and chamber
ensemble of nine
instruments (available on
a rental basis), Take
Him, Earth is presented
here in piano reduction.
For advanced choirs.
Duration: 13'. When
Tim Sharp, Executive
Director of the American
Choral Directors
Association, very
kindlyoffered me the
Raymond W. Brock Memorial
Commission for 2013, he
suggested that because
thepremiere would take
place at the national
conference in Dallas in
the 50th year since the
assassinationof John F.
Kennedy in that city, the
text might refer in some
way to that grim
anniversary. Hesuggested,
too, that I consider
using a chamber ensemble
or chamber orchestra to
accompany thechorus.I
took these suggestions to
heart, but at the same
time I wanted to write
something universal
enoughto be appropriate
on other occasions, in
other settings. Thus the
score is dedicated to
PresidentKennedy’s
memory, but otherwise he
is never referred to by
name. Instead, I
assembled a group oftexts
that are associated with
him in some way, but that
also stand alone as a
more general eulogy.As a
refrain, there are a few
lines from the early
Christian burial hymn
that begins “Take
him,Earth, for
cherishingâ€
— lines that were
earlier set to music by
Herbert Howells in his
classic motetcommissioned
for Kennedy’s
memorial service in 1963.
The lines of Aeschylus
“Drop, drop
— inour sleep,
upon the heart sorrow
falls†from
Agamemnon were quoted by
Robert F. Kennedy uponthe
death of Martin Luther
King in April 1968. The
celebrated “When he
shall die, cut him out
inlittle starsâ€
from Act III of
Shakespeare’s
Romeo and Juliet was
cited by RFK a few months
after hisbrother’s
murder.

These
four splendid anthems
were composed for the
coronation of George II
in October 1727 and have
since retained a position
at the heart of the
English choral tradition.
The popular anthem
Zadok the Priest
has been performed at all
subsequent coronations,
and Handel's other
contributions to the
royal occasion - Let
thy hand be
strengthened,
The King shall
rejoice, and My
heart is inditing -
have the same majestic
grandeur, with affecting
contrasts between
different sections of the
sacred texts. The editor,
Clifford Bartlett, has
corrected various
inconsistencies in
Handel's score, and
complete details of
sources and editorial
method, additional
performance notes, and a
critical commentary are
included.

This
deeply moving and
compelling musical is a
beautiful response to
God's loving, sacrificial
and powerful act of
redemption. Sacred and
cherished hymns, popular
worship songs, and new,
expressive compositions
combine in arrangements
that are both poignant
and moving, while
retaining a level of
difficulty that even the
smallest choir can
master. The emotive
narrations are derived
directly from the
scriptures and perfectly
frame the musical
settings. In addition,
the work includes several
solo and congregational
opportunities for
participation. Echoing
the song of heaven's
eternity, this 47-minute
presentation is assembled
in 4 main sections: I.
Worthy of Praise II.
Worthy of Our Love III. A
