8:15 P.M. Greenwall Music Workshop Songs/George Gershwin 4 BENNINGTON COLLEGE MUSIC DIVISION PRESENTS SUE ANN KAHN, flutist and BARBARA ANN MARTIN, soprano with Elizabeth Wright Jacob Glick Jeffrey Levine Joseph Schor Nathaniel Parke Seana Gamel Wednesday, November 17, 1993 8:15 P.M. Greenwall Music Workshop Songs/George Gershwin 4. My Cousin From Milwaukee 1. Foggy Day Once I visited my cousin in Milwaukee U.S.A. She's got boyfriends by the dozen when she sang in a low-down I was a stranger to the city, out of town were the people I knew I had that feeling of self-pity, what to do? wa'f· She was a positive sensation, the songs that she sang would The outlook was decidedly blue ... never miss But as I walked through the foggy streets alone it turned out to be My cousin was my inspiration, that's how I got like this the luckiest day I've known. I've got a cousin in Milwaukee, A foggy day in London town, it had me low, it had me down She's got a voice so squawky, I viewed the morning with such alarm, and though she's tall and kind-a gawky, The British Museum had lost its' charm. Oh, how she gets the men. How long, I wondered, could this thing last? Her singing isn't operatic, it's got a lot of static, But the age of miracles hadn't passed, But makes your heart get acrobatic, nine times out of ten. For suddenly, I saw you standing there, and in When she sings hot, you can't be solemn Foggy London town the sun was shining everywhere. It sends the shivers up and down your spinal column. When she sings blue, the men shout "What-stuff' "That Lady's got Hot Stuff!" 2. The Man I Love So if you like the way I sing songs, If you think that I'm a wow, Someday he'll come along, The Man I Love You can thank my squawky cousin from Milwaukee And he'll be big and strong, The Man I Love because she taught me how. And when he comes my way, I'll do my best to make him stay. He'll look at me and smile, I'll understand And in a little while, he'll take my hand And though it seems absurd, I know we both won't say a word. Maybe I shall meet him Sunday, maybe Monday, maybe not, Still I'm sure to meet him one day, maybe Tuesday will be my good news day. He'll build a little house just meant for two, From which I'll never roam, who would, would you? And so all else above, I'm waiting for The Man I Love. 3. Embraceable You Embrace me, my sweet embraceable you. Embrace me, you irreplaceable you. Just one look at you, my heart gets tipsy in me You and you alone bring out the gypsy in me. I love all the many charms about you, Above all, I want my arms abou t you. Don't be a naughty baby, come to mama come to mama do, My sweet embraceable you. III. Aria I Three Love Songs. by Lionel Nowak Go and leave us behind in sorrow; leave us sad at heart. Poems by James Thomson (B.V.) Rejoice in your country, to serve it is your duty, from "Sunday up the River" A good and fast voyage, wind and waves be with you. 1. My Love O'er The Water IV. Recitative My love o'er the water bends down dreaming Your ability surpasses your age. It glideth and glideth away Your word is sufficient to triumph; She sees there her own beauty, The leaders of Ansbaca favor you, and so your way gleaming through shadow and ripple and spray. should be easy. Oh tell her, you murmuring river, V. Aria As past her your light wavelets roll, How steadfast that image forever shines pure, Away with your sadness and hesitancy, in pure depths of my soul. Be like the sailor after a storm, Relieved of his fear or sickness 2. The Flaming Sword Rejoicing on the deck, his songs resound in the sea. My love is the flaming sword to fight through the world. Ecoute I Andre Caplet Thy love is the shield to ward and the armor of the Lord, and the banner of heav'n unfurled. Ecoute, mon coeur; Listen my heart; Dans cette flute chante in this flute's song La musique du parfum des fleurs the perfumed music of wild 3) Could We Float Thus Ever sauvages, flowers, Could we float thus ever Des feuilles eticelantes of gleaming leaves Floating down a river, Et de l'eau qui brille; and sparkling waters; Down a tranquil river, La musique d'ombres. the music of shadows resonant You alone with me.

Viens! une flute invisibile Come! an invisible flute Soupire dans les vergers. Sighs in the orchard. J. S. BACH - CANTATA #209 "Non sa che sia dolore" La Chanson la plus paisible The most peaceful song (One understands what sorrow means) Est la chanson des bergers. Is the song of the shepherds.
