Mixed Chorus [SATB] a Cappella SKU: BT.PMC4513
For mixed chorus (SATB) a cappella. Composed by Russell Horton. Choral Score. Composed 2020. 8 pages. Peermusic Classical #PMC4513. Published by Peermusic Classical (BT.PMC4513). Names comes from a cycle of 11 a cappella choral pieces derived from Early Moon, a collection of poetry by Carl Sandberg. The images in these simple, direct lyrics have a depth and resonance that all but cry out for musicalexpression. Names is the first piece in the cycle, and it simply, like a small child, names things - names them with a growing awareness of their generality, and their unity. A horse is more than an individual horse - fish, birds,men, woemn, children: they are, all of them, something larger than they seem - and they are named All God's children.
