Vaughan Williams Silent Noon In Eflat Voice And Piano

Vaughan Williams Silent Noon In Eflat Voice And Piano

20th century English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams is perhaps best known for his symphonies and large-scale choral works, however the essence of his music can also be found in his songs. His 1903 House of Life cycle features 6 songs, out of which the most famous one is the second, Silent Noon . Composed before the rest of the cycle, and first published separately, this piece in E-flat major, for Voice and Piano can easily stand alone. By using the sonnet of renowned 19th century English painter and poet, Dante Gabriel Rossetti, Williams celebrates the beauty of the English language and advances toward the true 20th century English art song. All of the songs in House of Life are written for sonnets from Rossetti’s sonnet-sequence of the same name and thus the continuity of the cycle is enforced both by the music and the lyrics. At the same time, the similarity given by the strict rules of the Petrarchan sonnet-form emphasises the differences in mood, meaning and music between the six songs. Even though the (male) narrator in Silent Noon is optimistic and hopeful, some of the variations in the passages suggest the despairing of love in Song 6 (‘Love’s Last Gift’) which gives this piece an interesting, lyrical atmosphere.

Stanley Dickson: Thanks Be To God

Stanley Dickson: Thanks Be To God

Thanks be to God is traditional in style and lends itself well to this four-part arrangement with stately chordal accompaniment. Few people know that ‘Stanley Dickson’ did not write this internationally renowned song of thanks. There was no ‘Stanley Dickson.’ It was a pseudonym, one of several used by Australian composer May Brahe to allow publishers to print more of her prodigious output. The only Australian woman composer of international renown in the first part of the 20th century, May Brahe also penned Bless This House and nearly 500 others.

Stephen Foster: Beautiful Dreamer (2-Part)

Stephen Foster: Beautiful Dreamer (2-Part)

In the canon of American song, no name comes ahead of Stephen Foster. The 19th century composer wrote nearly 300 songs, creating some of the US’s best-known songs, among them Camptown Races, Swanee River, My Old Kentucky Home, Jeanie With The Light Brown Hair. These iconic tunes have been performed, recorded, mined for television and film scores and advertisements so much that many Americans recognize them without knowing their author. Beautiful Dreamer, one of Foster’s many sentimental ballads, was published after his death. In this arrangement, the song’s sentimentality has been honoured without exaggeration.

Sir Henry Bishop: Lo! Hear The Gentle Lark (Voice/Piano)

Sir Henry Bishop: Lo! Hear The Gentle Lark (Voice/Piano)

Lo! Here the Gentle Lark is a Coloratura aria with virtuoso Flute and Piano accompaniment whose flourishes, cadenzas, trills and Vocalise passages create much musical excitement. A high duet between Flute and Soprano near the end is particularly flamboyant and thrilling. Henry R. Bishop was a composer active throughout the early 19th century, writing operas – though in the old style that was more akin to today’s musical theatre than to through-sung Continental opera – as well as many songs for theatrical performances and reworkings of other composers’ creations.One of Britain’s most famous composers of his time, he was the first musician ever to be knighted – by Queen Victoria in 1842 – and has since fallen, mostly, into obscurity.

F Roy Bennett: 3 Christmas Carols

F Roy Bennett: 3 Christmas Carols

The first two carols of the set are Bennett’s own creations, a study in contrasts. The first is a classic carol in common time with syncopation and a divisi Chorus. The second is the engaging African Crib Carol in 3+3+2/8 time again with divisi Chorus. The third is a lilting arrangement of a traditional Somerset carol. Separately or as a suite, these three carols make a fine addition to seasonal school programming.F Roy Bennett was a respected music educator and author of the 20th century who wrote many books of music theory and history that are highly prized by primary and secondary school music teachers.
