Choral (SATB a cappella)
SKU: HL.50490629
Composed by Mark Adamo. Choral. Classical. Octavo. 12 pages. G. Schirmer #ED 4497. Published by G. Schirmer (HL.50490629).
ISBN 9781458415950. UPC: 884088607340. 6.75x10.5x0.029 inches.
Composed for Craig Hella Johnson and Conspirare, the composer writes: Same Train, in many arrangements seems to sing of good news coming. But – maybe it was the relentlessness, the conclusiveness of the title phrase – I wondered if what was coming might actually have been a funeral train: coming for “our sister, our mother,” and...soon enough for us, too. I thought of so many other spirituals which sing about dark truths in bright music, and wondered if I couldn't use the imitative, “ch-ch-train” ostinato to honor that willfully smiling aspect of the piece, while also freeing the harmonies to make audible the more disconsolate feelings underneath.
