Mixed Chorus and Piano (SSATB choir and piano) - Moderately Advanced
SKU: SF.SEA-059-01
Composed by Elizabeth Alexander. Collegiate Repertoire, Community Chorus, High School Chorus, Concert Music. Courage, Freedom, Secular, Choral. Octavo. With Text language: English. Duration 5 minutes. Published by Seafarer Press (SF.SEA-059-01).Poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay, "On Thought In Harness".
In Edna St. Vincent Millay's poem, "On Thought in Harness," a falcon's timidness reflects our own reluctance to embrace freedom and risk. Elizabeth Alexander's rapturous setting of Millay's words gradually ascends into extravagant flight, with contemplative solos, a lustrous piano part, and soaring vocal lines.
Commissioned by Cedarburg High School Choir; Darciann Ketter conductor (Cedarburg, WI)
