"Song" [Juliet Raphael]
title: First line of lyrics: When I am dead, my dearest
subject: genre: madrigal|song
subject: solo: voice
subject: instrumentation: piano
subject: initial sharps/flats: four sharps
subject: initial time signature: 4/4
subject: origin: United States
subject: female composer
description: Rossetti poem(s): "Song" ("When I am dead, my dearest")
description: Composition history: A composer's note alongside the score explains that Raphael "endeavored to translate the words of the poets into music" which she was inspired to do after hearing James Stephens chant the verses of "Fifteen Acres." She was "strongly impressed [. . .] by the close interrelationship of the cadence, rhythm, tone, and accent in his chanting, and in the music which the words had suggested." In her other settings since, she has kept "the melody as closely as possible in consonance with the spirit and metrical form of the verses." She goes on to write, "For example, the poem 'Up-hill' consists of eight questions and eight answers. The questions, in a minor tone, modulate successively upward, one half-step - a frantic quest for the solution of the eternal query - whither? The answers are treated in a major key, mysterious, confident, final." (Raphael, xi)
description: Tempo markings: "Con gravita"
description: Performance instructions: In the Author's Note, Raphael writes "The music has been done only as a setting for the words - sung or chanted. To those who love poetry, and love to hear it read, chanted, or sung, this book is offered." (Raphael, xii)
description: Dedication: "To My Father"
description: Notes: The second song of seventeen in the song collection called "Madrigal and minstrelsy," which includes 1. "Laughing song" (William Blake); 2. "Song" (Christina Rossetti); 3. "The fifteen acres" (James Stephens); 4. "A woman's last word" (Robert Browning); 5. "Music, when soft voices die" (Percy Shelley); 6. "Home they brought her warrior dead" (Alfred, Lord Tennyson;) 7. "Matin song" (Thomas Heywood); 8. "Little lamb" (William Blake); 9. "Sonnet XXIX" (William Shakespeare); 10. "Song no. 2" (Stephens); 11. "The fiddler of Dooney" (William Butler Yeats); 12. "Arab love song" (Francis Thompson); 13. "Night" (William Blake); 14. "Give a man a horse he can ride" (James Thomson); 15. "Up-hill" (Christina Rossetti); 16. "Nurse's song" (William Blake); 17. "When you are old" (William Butler Yeats). Each setting is accompanied by an illustration by Marc Harchberger (American, 1900-1975), who also illustrated the cover of the collection.

"No sad songs" [Maryanne N. Rumancik]
title: Part of: "Christina Rossetti song cycle: advanced solos for mezzo soprano and piano"
subject: genre: song|song cycle
subject: solo: mezzo-soprano
subject: instrumentation: piano
subject: origin: Canada
subject: female composer
description: Rossetti poem(s): "Song" ("When I am dead, my dearest")
description: Place in the larger work: The third song of four in the song cycle called "Christina Rossetti song cycle: advanced solos for mezzo soprano and piano," settings of Christina Rossetti poems, which includes 1. "Sleeping at Last"; 2. "No thank you John!"; 3. "No sad songs"; 4. "My secret."
description: Notes: A review of the song cycle by Joy McFarlane-Burton is featured on the composer's website: "This is an interesting work for mezzo-soprano and piano suitable for the advanced soloist. The Song Cycle of four songs is based on the poetry of Christina Rossetti. The texts are beautifully and sensitively set. The first song "Sleeping at Last" is a combination of leider and Spechstimme styles. "No Thank You John" is more argumentative, again incorporating the Sprechstimme but with more humour. The chromatic texture of "No Sad Songs" is very appealing. The final song, "My Secret", is a playful song full of clever surprises" (McFarlane-Burton).

"The Silent Land" [Giles Swayne]
title: First line of lyrics: Do not go gentle into that good night...
subject: genre: requiem|choral music
subject: solo: soprano|alto|tenor|bass
subject: chorus: SATB chorus
subject: instrumentation: cello
subject: initial sharps/flats: no sharps or flats
subject: initial time signature: 5/4
subject: origin: United Kingdom
subject: male composer
description: Rossetti poem(s): "Remember"|"Song" ("When I am dead, my dearest")
description: Work contains multiple Christina Rossetti texts
description: Work contains texts by multiple authors
description: Notes about the text: The words of "The silent land" are taken from the Latin Requiem Mass, the poems "Remember" and "Song (When I am dead)" by Christina Rossetti and Dylan Thomas' couplet "Do not go gentle into that good night... / Rage, rage against the dying of the light".
description: Composition history: "'The silent land' was commissioned by Phyllis Lee for Clare College, Cambridge, for performance by Clare College choir (considerable augmented) under its musical director, Tim Brown. [...] Phyllis had recently lost her second husband, Hardy Lee, and I decided to write a piece in his memory. For some time I had been thinking of writing a version of the requiem - a version which omitted the idea of punishment and reward, and concentrated on loss and the acceptance of loss. I had also been intrigued for years by the technical challenge of writing for a 40-part choir - I see Tallis' "Spem in alium" as a perpetual challenge, and have long planned to write a piece of similar forces. The idea of using the cello came out of the Requiem words: the cello is the dead person's soul; the semichorus is the bereaved family; the 32 other parts are the grieving community."
description: Tempo markings: "Slow" quarter note = 72
description: Performance instructions: "The eight choirs should be spaced out somewhat, to create separation; the ideal would be a wide semicircle. The semichorus should stand downstage of the main choirs; each soloist positioned in front of the choir of which he/she is a part; this should form a smaller semicircle within the larger one. The solo cello and the conductor should be placed at the center of the whole." There are also lengthy technical notes on properly performing the score in the preface.
description: Dedication: "To Phyllis Lee, in memory of Hardy"
description: Notes: "The silent land" is scored for solo cello and choir in 40 real parts. The voices are divided into eight five-part choirs (2 SSATB choirs, 2 SAATB choirs, 2 SATTB choirs and 2 SATBB choirs). Each of the choirs has an extra voice, creating an 8 part semichorus of 2 sopranos, 2 altos, 2 tenors, and 2 basses which should be given to solo voices.
