The River Sleeps Beneath the Sky
This is certain to be a favorite with contest/festival choirs! Mary Lynn Lightfoot's poignant setting of the poem "Sunset" by African-American poet Paul Laurence Dunbar is not only a striking concert work, but it also overflows with teaching possibilities. The music weaves between major and minor, with superbly crafted vocal lines and a sensitive, supportive accompaniment, until it ends in quiet splendor with a whispered "Sunset!" A stunning work!
