For the young candidates in Grade 1 of the 2010 International Piano Competition in Fribourg (Switzerland), I wanted to exploit the piano resonances by means of the pedal or with harmonics. The “litte secret (Petit secret) is a simple folksong hidden within the voicings of the three-pitch chords at the beginning of the piece, then through the harmonics of the Allegro, and finally within the clusters at the end.

The word aloha is much more than just a greeting---it has a deeper meaning that conveys cultural beliefs about how to treat others. This rhythmic original by Ruth Morris Gray celebrates the five traits of aloha, sung in Hawaiian, and then defines them in English. The two independent lines are a perfect fit when later combined. A few enthusiastic handclaps during the intro and interlude add excitement. Chord symbols are provided for optional ukuleles or sing with the island-inspired SoundTrax.

This celebration of the senses is a unique piece in many ways. The profound text is matched beautifully in creative music making.

The ascent and descent of the opening lines trace the mountains’ silhouette against the sky, followed by the treble and bass voices that draw us by turn to view each detail of the scene and listen for the wisdom of the mountains. Accomplished high school choirs and beyond will find beauty and meaning as they explore this piece.
