Three Songs After Adelaide [SATB]

A set of three poems by the American poet Adelaide Crapsey. Each song is based on a cinquain, a five-line poem in the style of the haiku.

      I. November Night
      II. The Grand Canyon
      III. Triad

uses a diverse tonal language that embraces dissonance, yet does not stray into atonality. However, due to this difficult musical texture, it is recommended for advanced high school or collegiate choruses. Three Songs after Adelaide was premiered by Nashville’s Portara Ensemble, directed by Shreyas Patel, on October 13th, 2013.

The price of $19.99 includes the full score, with all three movements, and a license to print up to nine copies (for eight singers and one conductor). If you wish to purchase more printing licenses, please select the relevant amount above.
