SATB choir (choir divisi) unaccompanied - Moderately Difficult - Digital Download
SKU: MQ.8606-E
Composed by Joshua Fishbein. Octavo. 12 pages. E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital #8606-E. Published by E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital (MQ.8606-E).
English.
The composer has crafted a very literal musical interpretation of this text by Benjamin Britten. For instance, the word “minor” is set in pulsating minor triads. Also, the initials “E. B.” are sung on the pitches E and B. This composition shares similarities with music one might hear performed by a cappella groups on college campuses, such as humming and singing on neutral vowels like “Oh” and “Ah.” Elements of this piece also resemble 20th Century English choral music by William Walton and Ralph Vaughan Williams, in addition to Britten himself. Examples include abruptly distant harmonic changes, shocking cross-relations, and slow triplets that match the rhythm of the English language. Overall, A Prep-School Boy is very much in the spirit of the composer that it honors. Duration: 5:00.
