PERCUSSION AND VOICE

Scored for soprano and vibraphone. The text (in English) for Come Away
draws from the Song of Solomon, in the Hebrew Scripture. The original prose is the serenade of a young man inviting his beloved to follow him
for a time of romance.
In Come Away,
the words evolve into
a ballad of unrequited love. Nice change of pace for recitals or sacred settings!
Requires 4 mallets. adv. high school/college.

Scored for mezzo-soprano and vibraphone. This work consists of two short but challenging movements: Kyrie and Gloria, and makes use of Greek and Latin texts. The vibraphone part does not serve merely as accompaniment to the soprano, but rather in many instances displays interesting rhythmic and melodic counterpoint to the sopranos melodic lines. The vibraphone part requires four-mallets and intermediate/advanced technique. This piece offers a unique setting of these texts and would be appropriate both for sacred settings and the concert hall! college.
