Day Is Done, The
from Simon Carrington, series editor I have admired Jean Belmont Ford's compositions ever since I heard the Kansas City Chorale's recording of her Nativitas Christmas cycle soon after my arrival in the U.S. I performed a movement from Nativitas at my first Holiday Vespers at the University of Kansas and have subsequently conducted a number of her pieces including her beautiful “Sky Loom” with the Texas All State Choir and cello soloist. She sets text in a very special way and any interpretation of her vocal scores requires great attention to the flow of the words, the stress of the syllables and the subtle word-painting. I suggest that the tempo be very flexible throughout, letting her music reflect the shifting rhythms and gentle rise and fall of well modulated sung speech. Composer(s): Ford, Jean Belmont Instrument(s): Choral(SATB a cappella) SKU: AMP0798 Price $1.95 (Canadian Dollars)
