An old English ballad, Scarborough Fair relates the tale of a jilted maiden who instructs her listener to tell her former lover that she will have him back after he performs a series of impossible tasks: making a shirt without a seam, washing it in a dry well, to name a few. A modern equivalent might be when pigs fly. Keep it light and bring out the differing accents in the meters, especially the dotted quarter notes. While there is no percussion part written in the score, we had a djembe player play along to bring out the various accents. Feel free to add your own as well. Have fun!.

SSATB Choir

SKU: CA.966500

Composed by Paul Ayres. Edited by Stefan Schuck. Contemporary Choir Music. Sacred vocal music. Full score. Composed 2005. 8 pages. Duration 4 minutes. Carus Verlag #CV 09.665/00. Published by Carus Verlag (CA.966500).

ISBN 9790007167707. Text language: Latin/English.

Inte restingly, Ayres combines the Latin text of the hymn with his translation here: in the style of a free motet-like cantus firmus, he interprets the Latin text impressively in music, making use of glissandi, wide leaps and unison twelve-tone linear construction for the dramatic second verse with its deceptive vision of night. He places the motet sections after the translated text, but quite simply with the Gregorian cantus firmus and in the style of medieval organum, however with interesting, diatonically written dissonant sounds. This rewarding piece is challenging, but well worth singing in a concert or church service.
