An enticing rarity in the vocal literature, 1861 is a 5-minute work for unaccompanied voice – a miniature monodrama, sung a cappella. Okoye’s music and dramatic pacing are in tune with Whitman’s words about the Civil War erupting soon after Lincoln’s inauguration. Whitman’s opening lines, “Arm’d year! Year of the struggle! No dainty rhymes or sentimental love verses for you,” describe both the real world and Whitman’s self-referential poetry, and they are the starting blocks for Okoye’s powerful setting. 1861 was originally composed for solo Tenor, and later transposed for solo Contralto (also published separately).

With endlessly imaginative timbral and textural invention, Chen Yi weaves an ethereal and alluring nocturnal tapestry of sounds in Night Thoughts. The melodic construction is often gestural and freely chromatic, yet at other times openly melodic, with a sense of folk-like spontaneity. Special techniques like key slaps, exaggerated vibrato, trilled glissandi, and struck piano strings add interest as various combinations of instruments and registers are explored, until the music drifts finally and hauntingly into the night.

“There are too few concertos for tuba” remarked Samuel Adler about the composition of his own CONCERTO FOR TUBA AND ORCHESTRA in 2017, now available in a new arrangement by the composer for solo tuba, two pianos, and two percussionists. Wishing to showcase the instrument’s lyricism and dexterity alike, Adler cast his concerto in three movements, with a substantial cadenza between the second and third. The first movement, Cantillation, is free-flowing and songlike, while the second and third ( Scherzo and Finale ) are brilliant and virtuosic. The cadenza before the third movement is a display of musicality rather than technical prowess. “I felt I wanted to give the soloist [David Saltzman] another opportunity to emphasize the beauty and [lyricism] of this neglected solo instrument,” says Adler, “a chance to ‘sing’ by himself.”

Inspired by the mountainous grandeur of the American west, Eric Ewazen’s A BOULDER TRIO is a spirited and dynamic addition to the chamber repertoire for double reeds. Singing and lithe melodic lines in the winds dance atop rich and solid harmony in the piano. Motoric outer movements frame a tender, slow 6/8 waltz at the center. At once idiomatic and fresh, A BOULDER TRIO rewards players and listeners in equal measure.

In Stacy Garrop’s inspired hands, divisi mixed chorus provides a rich palette of texture and color. Her setting intermingles three versions of the Hebrew folk tune, taking artistic advantage of contrasts between solo and tutti, homophony and grand antiphony, divisi men and divisi women, and the gradual braiding and unbraiding of Hebrew and English texts. LO YISA GOY is the explicitly anti-war Scriptural text better-known in its English translation that begins, “And they shall beat their swords into plowshares... nation shall not lift up a sword against nation.”

"When I was part of a composers group at the School of Practical Philosophy in New York City, we were given an exercise in composition. The instructions were to read the text, allow it to have its effect, then compose without thought, bypassing any internal dialogue about the meaning of the words.

The Poet’s Eye is from a speech in Shakespeare’s A Midsummer’s Night’s Dream, Act 5, Scene 1, delivered by Theseus. It addresses the role of the poet in society and how the gift of imagination manifests through the poet’s pen.

I Am is based on a poem of disputed origin, titled “Do Not Stand at My Grave and Weep”.  The poem has been attributed to Americans Mary Elizabeth Frye and Clare Harner, Stephen Cummings, a British soldier, J.T. Wiggins, an Englishman who migrated to America, and also attributed as a Navajo burial prayer.

There Is a Splendor is a setting of a poem by Marsilio Ficino, an Italian scholar and Catholic priest, who was one of the most influential humanist philosophers of the early Italian Renaissance. "
