Program NoteMy take on the madrigal, 21st-century style!
Blake's celebratory poem inspired me to write a joyful setting welcoming the future into our lives. Upper and lower voices trade off playfully syncopated settings of the word "merrily" with touches of chromaticism. The whole choir unites at the end in full-throated song |
PoemSpring by William Blake (excerpt)
Text is in the public domain Sound the Flute! Now it’s mute. Birds delight Day and Night. Nightingale In the dale Lark in Sky Merrily Merrily Merrily to welcome in the Year |
