A Song of the Future by Gwyneth W. Walker SSAA - Digital Sheet Music

By Virgil Thomson

Based on a poem by Sidney Lanier (1842-1881,) this journey into the future parallels Noah's journey on the Ark. The music opens with lines which flow like waves. The oboe has an octave motif which signifies reaching out in search across the waters. A quiet middle section expresses the dove being released on a quest for new land. The closing lines create beautiful imagery, “Thou art only a tiny and quiet dove, but thine eye is faith, and thy wing is love.” A lyrical, expansive setting for SSAA chorus, oboe, and piano.
