Don Bryn’s 2 Childish Sea Songs draw on poetry by Mildred Plew Meigs, whose verses—though originally written for children—offer vivid depictions of Florida’s coastal life and ocean imagery. These choral settings are designed for intermediate and advanced ensembles, balancing playful storytelling with carefully crafted vocal writing, dynamic contrasts, and colorful harmonic language. The songs also feature solos for every voice type, giving singers opportunities to shine while adding variety and theatrical flair to performance.
With music that gently mimics the lapping of waves, Moon Song is a lullaby that invites listeners into a dreamlike seascape. The poem offers fanciful, whimsical images of the moon casting a silver line into the ocean, fishing for stars, dreams, and magical treasures hidden beneath the tide. Set to a tender, flowing melody, the music captures the rhythm of water and the hush of night, creating a serene atmosphere perfect for drifting off to sleep. A serene blend of poetry and sound, Moon Song invites listeners into a nightscape where imagination floats just beneath the surface.
The Pirate Don Durk of Dowdee is a playful, theatrical romp through the high seas of imagination. Bursting with rhythmic swagger and colorful flair, the music captures both the daring mischief and irresistible charm of this comically villainous pirate. With jaunty melodies, dramatic shifts, and tongue-in-cheek musical flourishes, Bryn’s score highlights every swashbuckling twist of the poem–from the jiggling plume to the jingling gold.
Listeners will delight in the musical surprises that bring Don Durk to life in all his roguish glory. Though he’s “wicked as wicked can be” the music makes clear that this pirate is more amusing than alarming—a fabulous figure of fantasy whose sins are outnumbered only by his style. A perfect musical adventure that captures both the fun and the folly of falling under a pirate’s spell.
