With his
three songs for mixed
a-cappella choir (SSAATB)
which were published
under the speaking title
of 'Fairy Land' in 2013,
Hermann Grosse-Schware
takes us to the wonderful
land of fairy tales. All
three six-part works are
based on English-language
poems by William
Shakespeare. The first
piece 'Over hill, over
dale' from 'A Midsummer
Night's Dream' is
characterized by melodic
sequences and a
distinctive rhythm which
portrays the content of
the piece headed 'Swift
and Easy' as does the
swaying 3/4 rhythm of No.
2 'Philomel, with
melody'. In the lively
'Come unto these yellow
sands' (No. 3) one seems
to be experiencing the
barking of the dog and
the crowing of the cock
at first hand.
