Composed by Thomas Oboe Lee. 20th Century,Baroque,Classical,Contemporary,Romantic Period. Score. 64 pages. Thomas Oboe Lee #30987. Published by Thomas Oboe Lee (A0.869173).Program note:
Two thousand ten marks my 20th year of teaching music at Boston College, a Jesuit institute of higher learning.
To celebrate this milestone I decided to set a poem by the great British Jesuit poet, Gerard Manley Hopkins. In my search for a text I came upon his monumental work, "The Wreck of the Deutschland." The poem is in two parts. Part The First deals with faith and God. Part The Second concerns the five Franciscan nuns who perished in the sinking of the ship. I decided to set Part The First only, for soprano and piano. There are ten stanzas. Each stanza has its own musical texture and mood.
1. THOU mastering me God!
2. I did say yes
3. The frown on his face
4. I am soft sift
5. I kiss my hand
6. Not out of his bliss
7. It dates from day
8. Is out with it!
9. Be adored among men
10. With an anvil ding
Enjoy!!!
