The Soul's Expression

With stammering lips and insufficient sound I strive and struggle to deliver right .'hat music of my nature, day and night With dream and thought and feeling interwound, And inly answering all the senses round With octaves of a mystic depth and height Which step out grandly to the infinite From the dark edges of the sensual ground! This song of soul I struggle to outbear Through portals of the sense, sublime and whole, And utter all myself into the air. But if I did it, - as the thunder-roll Breaks its own cloud, my flesh would perish there, Before that dread apocalypse of soul.

Evening

'The flame of the fast-fading sunset nas scattered its sparks 'cross the sky. The radiant sea is transparent; the dissonant clanging of cart bells along the seaside highway falls silent. The ringing songs of the muleteers lose their way in the thick forest. In the limpid fog a noisy seagull flittered and disappeared. The white sea-foam rocks to and fro by the grey rocky shore, like a sleeping child in a cradle. Like pearls, he fresh drops of dew hang on the leaves of the chestnut tree; and in every droplet there shimmers the flame of the fast-fading sunset.

Poem bv Ya. Polansky (translated by Vlaaimir Morosan) Christmas Cantata

I Whom did you see? Shepherds, tell us! Proclaim to us: who has appeared on the earth? We saw the new-born child and choirs of angels praising the Lord. Tell us, what have you seen? Announce the birth of Christ. Alleluia

II 0 great mystery and wondrous sacrament. that animals should see the new-born Lord lying in the manger, Blessed is the Virgin whose womb was worthy to bear the Lord Jesus Christ

III Glory to God in the highest and peace m earth, good will toward a I I people. Rejoice in God all the earth. Serve the Lord with gladness Come before His presence with singing, joy, and exultation. Now know ye: know that the Lord He is God strong and mighty. He created us and not we ourselves.

Water Night

The poetry of Octavio Paz is a composer's dream. The music seems to set itself and the process feels more like cleaning the oils from an ancient canvas to reveal the hidden music than composing. Water Night was ro exception, and the tight harmonies and patient unfolding seemed to pour from the poetry from the first reading, singing its magic even after the English translation. Water Night is simply the natural musical expression of this beautiful poem. Eric Whitacre

Angels Are Everywhere and Alleluia

Treble voices are often described as "angelic." Playing with this idea, the Women's Chorale puts together a description of angels being everywhere with an angelic setting of "Alleluia."
