Chorus Choir (SSAATTBB) - Level 4 - Digital Download
SKU: A0.1265239
Composed by Kirsten Duncan. This edition: pdf. A Cappella, Contemporary. Octavo. 12 pages. Shrub Creative #858085. Published by Shrub Creative (A0.1265239).
Music by Australian composer Kirsten Duncan, words by Lewis Carroll. Contemporary choral SATB a cappella. A4, 12 pages (including covers). Published by Shrub Creative. Item number 2023-01. ISMN 9790900969910.
A narrative work for intermediate unaccompanied mixed choirs (SATB divisi, a cappella), setting Lewis Carroll’s epic adventure poem ‘Jabberwocky’.
Score includes piano reduction for rehearsal, and pronunciation guide.
In Lewis Carroll’s ‘Jabberwocky’, published in his 1871 novel Through the Looking-Glass, a “beamish boy” sets out on an adventure through a mysterious land populated by fantastical creatures, vanquishes a fearsome beast and returns triumphantly home. Central to the enduring appeal of the poem is Carroll’s linguistic creativity.
There are at least 16 other choral settings of ‘Jabberwocky’, so why choose this one? Like most, Kirsten Duncan’s composition seeks to express the meanings of the words and actions in the text through musical ideas. Unlike most, this piece is composed for intermediate to advanced mixed adult choirs (SATB divisi) without any instrumental accompaniment, and combines the tradition of Anglican chant (evident in the final stanza) with a mood of fireside storytelling for a ripping musical yarn of high adventure.
Kirsten Duncan has had a lifelong passion for choral singing. Now based in Canberra, Australia, she has performed with Gaudeamus (Judith Clingan), Hamburg International School (ISH) Singers, the choirs of Christ Church St Laurence Sydney (Dr Neil McEwan), The Resonants (Helen Swan) and others. Kirsten started composing choral music in 2015, contributing to the musical community that has been a stabilising thread throughout her life. She especially thanks Helen Swan and The Resonants for giving voice to this composition.
