Commission
ed by the San Francisco
Choral Society and the
Piedmont East Bay
Children’s Choir,
Terra Nostra is a
70-minute oratorio on the
relationship between our
planet and humankind, how
this relationship has
shifted over time, and
how we can re-establish a
harmonious balance. Part
I: Creation of the World
explores various creation
myths from different
cultures, culminating in
a joyous celebration of
the beauty of our planet.
Part II: The Rise of
Humanity examines human
achievements,
particularly since the
dawn of our Industrial
Age, and how these
achievements have
impacted the planet. Part
III: Searching for
Balance questions how to
create more awareness for
our planet’s
plight, re-establish a
deeper connection to it,
and find a balance for
living within our
planet’s
resources. In addition to
the complete oratorio,
stand-alone movements for
mixed chorus, and for
solo voice with piano,
are also available
separately. Terra
Nostra focuses on the
relationship between our
planet and mankind, how
this relationship has
shifted over time, and
how we can re-establish a
harmonious balance. The
oratorio is divided into
three parts:Part I:
Creation of the World
celebrates the birth and
beauty of our planet. The
oratorio begins with
creation myths from
India, North America, and
Egypt that are integrated
into the opening lines of
Genesis from the Old
Testament. The music
surges forth from these
creation stories into
“God’s
World†by Edna St.
Vincent Millay, which
describes the world in
exuberant and vivid
detail. Percy Bysshe
Shelley’s
“On thine own
child†praises
Mother Earth for her role
bringing forth all life,
while Walt Whitman sings
a love song to the planet
in “Smile O
voluptuous cool-breathed
earth!†Part I ends
with “A Blade of
Grass†in which
Whitman muses how our
planet has been spinning
in the heavens for a very
long time.Part II: The
Rise of Humanity examines
the achievements of
mankind, particularly
since the dawn of the
Industrial Age. Lord
Alfred Tennyson’s
“Locksley
Hall†sets an
auspicious tone that
mankind is on the verge
of great discoveries.
This is followed in short
order by Charles
Mackay’s
“Railways
1846,†William
Ernest Henley’s
“A Song of
Speed,†and John
Gillespie Magee,
Jr.’s “High
Flight,†each of
which celebrates a new
milestone in
technological
achievement. In
“Binsey
Poplars,†Gerard
Manley Hopkins takes note
of the effect that these
advances are having on
the planet, with trees
being brought down and
landscapes forever
changed. Percy Bysshe
Shelley’s “A
Dirge†concludes
Part II with a warning
that the planet is
beginning to sound a
grave alarm.Part III:
Searching for Balance
questions how we can
create more awareness for
our planet’s
plight, re-establish a
deeper connection to it,
and find a balance for
living within our
planet’s
resources. Three texts
continue the
earth’s plea that
ended the previous
section: Lord
Byron’s
“Darknessâ€
speaks of a natural
disaster (a volcano) that
has blotted out the sun
from humanity and the
panic that ensues;
contemporary poet Esther
Iverem’s
“Earth
Screaming†gives
voice to the modern
issues of our changing
climate; and William
Wordsworth’s
“The World Is Too
Much With Us†warns
us that we are almost out
of time to change our
course.
Contemporary/agrarian
poet Wendell
Berry’s “The
Want of Peaceâ€
speaks to us at the
climax of the oratorio,
reminding us that we can
find harmony with the
planet if we choose to
live more simply, and to
recall that we ourselves
came from the earth. Two
Walt Whitman texts
(“A Child said,
What is the grass?â€
and “There was a
child went forth every
dayâ€) echo
Berry’s thoughts,
reminding us that we are
of the earth, as is
everything that we see on
our planet. The oratorio
concludes with a reprise
of Whitman’s
“A Blade of
Grass†from Part I,
this time interspersed
with an additional
Whitman text that
sublimely states,
“I bequeath myself
to the dirt to grow from
the grass I
love…â€My hope
in writing this oratorio
is to invite audience
members to consider how
we interact with our
planet, and what we can
each personally do to
keep the planet going for
future generations. We
are the only stewards
Earth has; what can we
each do to leave her in
better shape than we
found her?

This
interesting collection
looks back to the
'Winter' of Byrd and
Mundy in the conservative
settings of such verse as
My prime of
youth (see EM35B);
but it is also a
contemporary record, with
two madrigals celebrating
the failure of Guy
Fawkes' Gunpowder Plot
against James I.

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.

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.

The
cantata Ich habe meine
Zuversicht BWV 188 comes
from the so-called
Picander cycle and was
written for the 21st
Sunday after Trinity in
1728 or 1729. There are
some particular problems
associated with its
transmission. The
original set of parts was
lost, and the manuscript
score only survives in
fragmentary form.
Probably as early as the
18th century the score
was divided up into
numerous separate parts
in order to make more
money, or to be able to
provide as many Bach
relics as possible for
posterity. The first
movement, an instrumental
sinfonia, is missing
apart from the final
bars. We simply know that
this sinfonia is based on
the 3rd movement of the
Harpsichord Concerto BWV
1052 in D minor and that
instead of the
harpsichord, an obbligato
organ was envisaged. Its
successful reconstruction
by the baroque specialist
and organist Pieter
Dirksen now makes it
possible to perform the
cantata again complete
with the introductory
sinfonia. Score and parts
available separately -
