With a haunting text by Christina Rossetti, Dream Land tells the story of a young lady who is considering what is next in life.  The rhythmic accompaniment accentuates and supports the vocal line and care has been taken to create layers in the voice leading. A harmonic and mood change takes place midway through the piece as the text discusses a "perfect rest." The opening theme is reintroduced and the piece closes a solemn "perfect rest." Also available in SSA voicing.

Alle, Alleluia is appropriate for choirs of various ability levels. Developed largely around the Dorian scale, it is a quick learn and could work excellently as a concert opener. It was conceived while I was at an Easter service, hearing the word Alleluia used several times. As I thought up the melody, I quickly used music notation shorthand to write out what would become the alto part.

SSAA Octavo

Dum spiro spero translates as "As I breathe, I hope" and is an important narrative for all of us (and happens to be the state motto of South Carolina). The Latin and English texts are woven together and unexpected but tasteful harmonic shifts keep the listener attentive. A wide dynamic spectrum is explored as well as rhythmic and tempo changes. Change is a part of life and I hope this piece will encourage you to have hope as long as you have breath.

Musically based on the Irish folk melody "Londonderry Air," the lyrics for Danny Boy were written in 1910 by (surprisingly) an English lawyer named Frederic Weatherly. Weatherly's sister-in-law, who was Irish, introduced him to the aforementioned folk melody and Weatherly went about adapting his poem to fit "Londonderry Air." 

This arrangement was first penned in 2010 and honors my Irish heritage.  My great-uncle, Jim Driscoll, was a proud Irishman and loved all things associated with that heritage- St. Patrick's Day, the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame University and of course, Irish music.
