Jabberwocky

Lewis Carroll's famous poem from Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There is generally considered to be the greatest of all nonsense poems in the English language. To say that it lends itself to choral musical interpretation is an understatement! Rene Clausen has applied his mastery of the choral idiom to creating this marvelous work, which employs just enough dissonance and metrical-rhythmic play to give it an other-worldly quality befitting the text. "'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, and the mome raths outgrabe..." This is extraordinary!
