A
folk-like setting of Maya
Angelou's empowering
poem, which compares a
bird's longing to be
liberated with that of
all people. Hayes chooses
a minor key with plenty
of harmonic tension and a
walking tempo that
suggests the footsteps of
those who have come
before. The final Picardy
third is the ultimate
symbol of freedom. This
is the second movement
from the song cycle Like
Dust I Rise.

Giovanni
Gabrieli's Se cantano
gl'augelli comes from a
collection of madrigals
entitled Il trionfo di
Dori. Each madrigal is
scored for six voices and
each ends with the text
Viva la bella Dori (Long
live fair Dori). This
late sixteenth-century
collection of madrigals
enjoyed great success and
was the model of the
famous English collection
of madrigals entitled,
The Triumphes of Oriana.
The GIA Historical Music
Series edited by Dennis
Shrock, presents
repertoire suitable for
performance by public
school, college and
university, church, and
community ensembles, with
the purpose of making
available to
today’s conductors
lesser-known and
previously
difficult-to-procure
historical masterpieces.
The music, drawn from the
Renaissance through the
Romantic eras, is in
performance editions
based on the most current
and rigorous scholarly
research. The musical
scores reflect original
intent of notation, with
all editorial markings
and emendations clearly
identified as such. In
addition, preface
material accompanying the
music contains literal
translations of foreign
language texts and
information regarding the
lives of the composers,
genres, and relevant
performance practices.
Dennis Shrock is Director
of Choral Activities at
Texas Christian
University. He has been
called one of the top
choral scholars in the
United States and has
received a number of
awards for his work. He
received a bachelor's
degree in music education
from Westminster Choir
College and both master's
and doctoral degrees in
choral conducting from
Indiana
University. .
