To celebrate
25 years of excellence
and promotion of new
concert works, the New
York Virtuoso Singers
commissioned 25
contemporary composers
for 25 new choral works,
all of which now appear
on their recording, 25 X
25: Twenty-Five Premieres
for Twenty-Five Years.
Among the 25 is Richard
Wernick's The Devil's
Game. Here, Wernick uses
The Devil's Verse, a
Latin palindrome that
still puzzles us today as
to its meaning, and
appropriately embraces
repetitive use of the
verse in a musical
palindrome of his
own. The text is a
palindrome (in girum imus
nocte et consumimur
igni), a rather
mysterious one called The
Devil’s Verse. Its
origin is vague (probably
Roman, but possibly
Medieval) and it does not
surrender its meaning
easily; many scholars
have fussed over it. It
is a riddle as well as a
palindrome, in other
words a puzzle within a
puzzle. My preferred
translation, without
going into the niceties
of Latin grammar, is
“We enter the
circle at night and are
consumed by
fire.â€This music is
also a palindrome, the
outer parts of which are
homophonic, while the
turning around point in
the center (where the
basses enter for the
first time) is a brief
double canon.

This
cycle of carols, to the
poetry of Christina
Rossetti, was assembled
piecemeal over a number
of years, gradually
acquiring a larger
dramatic and harmonic
arch shape as new
settings were added. I
was particularly
attracted to Rossetti's
conflation of the dark,
fallow winter landscape
with that of the soul
waiting for salvation.
The cycle traces the long
nights of watchfulness
before Christmas, with
the great event
constantly deferred, only
glimpsed periodically in
different visions before
the music turns inward
again to contemplation.
The opening carol
embodies this spirit,
with passages of diffuse,
roving harmony
interspersed with
meditative, lyrical
pedals, calling out the
night watch and dreaming
of a far-off summer of
the spirit. Earth Grown
Old is a kind of double
carol, setting two
complete poems, their
lines at first presented
separately as a still,
expectant chorale and a
jubilant dance, then
progressively interwoven
toward a fervent climax
before once again
receding into quiet. In
the bleak mid-winter,
which sets a highly
compressed version of
Rossetti's original poem,
presents an enfeebled
landscape frozen in time,
in dire need of
deliverance. A gentle
melody weaves its way
through static drones,
broken by an angels'
chorus announcing the joy
to come. Love Came Down
at Christmas ends the
waiting, with its gently
falling, overlapping
lines building to a final
revelation, the mystery
of Christmas at last made
real.

With just four
handbells, this is a
remarkably crafted piece
for SATB voices and
bells, with no other
accompaniment. Much of
the score is 3-part,
either STB or SAB,
creating a lovely
transparency that only
minimally goes into four
voices. The choir sings,
the bells punctuate. 4
Handbells. .
