"Sing no sad songs" [Gerald Kechley]

title: Part of: "Three Rossetti Songs"
subject: genre: song|song cycle
subject: solo: soprano
subject: instrumentation: flute
subject: origin: United States
subject: male composer
description: Rossetti poem(s): "Song" ("When I am dead, my dearest")
description: Place in the larger work: One of three songs in a song cycle called "Three Rossetti Songs," settings by Christina Rossetti poems. The songs include "Grant us calm"; "Sing no sad songs"; "Who has seen the wind".
description: Composition history: The following text by the composer was included in the program notes for the 28 May 1989 In Memoriam: Scott Lakin Jones concert: "The first of the 'Three Rossetti Songs,' 'Lord grant us calm,' was written in 1969 (two decades ago!), and the other two added three years later for a specific performance by a singer-friend for whom the original song was written. As it happens, 'Sing no sad songs' uses a text revised from four decades ago, when it was first set for unaccompanied mixed voices in 1949. The flutes, sharing equally as integral parts of a trio, at times take a somewhat contrasted view of the text, and at times find closer connections with the voice. The prevalence of uncontrasted upper register sounds which permeate the piece is a planned textural ambience deemed appropriate for the expression of these particular songs."

description: Composition history: A note on the score states that "the cycle was commissioned by the Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge Foundation. It was composed between November, 1978 and May, 1979 on the island of Nantucket, hence the title. An apt subtitle might be 'Popular Songs', insofar as "Popular" means "entertaining" as opposed to "classically" indirect. Indeed, these songs -- merry or complex or strange though their texts may seem -- aim away from the head and toward the diaphragm. They are, as collegians say, emotional rather than intellectual, and need not to be understood to be enjoyed."
