SATB choir and chamber orchestra or piano (Strings: 5-5-3-3-3) - Medium - Digital Download
SKU: MQ.6378-E
Composed by Gwyneth W. Walker. Octavo, choral score. 12 pages. E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital #6378-E. Published by E. C. Schirmer Music Company - Digital (MQ.6378-E).
English.
Crossing the Bar creates images of the sea, with the "final voyage" leading us out across the water, to see our "Pilot, face to face." The musical setting endeavors to express the growth from peaceful to ecstatic moods, the tolling of the bell, the meeting of the Pilot. "May there be no moaning of the bar, when I put out to sea."
The poetry of Alfred, Lord Tennyson (1809-1892) is characterized by dark, yet transcendent imagery -- the depths of the ocean, the triumph of the spirit. These poems seem well-suited to musical settings for Men's Chorus. The deep tones. The sonority of male voices (perhaps speaking for the poet) rising in song.
Throughout the varied imagery of this poetry -- the depth of the sea, the dark of the night, the tumult of passion and the acceptance of death -- there speaks one, central message. "Love was my lord and king.".
