Trotta's unique juxtaposition of texts from the past (Requiem?text in the?Liber Usualis) with the present (e.e. cummings poem?i carry your heart) results in a compelling, lush composition accessible to mixed choirs of all sizes. With optional oboe and solo or small group, i carry your heart?is appropriate for concert, festival, retirement or a special tribute. It is certain to be adored and appreciated by all. Highly recommend!.This piece incorporates the Introit from the Requiem in the Liber Usualis in the men's voices using the text by E. E. Cummings. The women's voices have original music that soars gracefully about the plainsong. The middle section features the Requiem text, set simply in a homophonic style. The final section blends the two styles into a prayer of thanks and remembrance. This beloved E.E. Cummings text was commissioned in honor and loving memory of Dr. Ferris Ohl (1914-2017) in thanks for over four decades of service to the Heidelberg University Music department. Director of Choral Activities Dr. Greg Ramsdell sought to pay tribute to the rich legacy of Dr. Ohl by having a setting of the text that broadened the scope of the message i carry your heart to include those who have come before us and who live on in our song.

The piece was commissioned by Kevin Scully, Director of Creative Arts, for the Port Washington School District, New York, with special thanks to the Ed Foundation and HEARTS for their unwavering support. Performance Notes This lighthearted piece is a great way to bring multiple choirs together in harmony. It may be sung by a single SATB choir, though it is intended to be performed by multiple choirs of varying age levels. Song of the Sound was written for an all-district feeder festival piece for combined elementary, middle level, and high school choirs. Here is a suggested outline for combining multiple choirs: Rehearsal Letters A to B: Elementary choir only (two-part, Soprano, Alto) Rehearsal Letter B: add Middle Level Soprano, Alto with Elementary choir Rehearsal Letter C: Middle Level choir only Rehearsal Letter D: High School choir only Rehearsal Letter E to the end: Everyone! Song of the Sound: Running on the beach, digging in the sand, Seaweed in my toes, bucket in my hand. When I'm at the shore, way above the rest, These are all the things that I love the best. Skipping like a stone on the water, diving deep in the silvery foam, Swimming far where the land cannot hold us, where the lighthouse calls us home. Flying free above the marshes, soaring high above the sea, Where the tern and cormorant and plover call to lands we cannot see.Come let us go to the water, let us go to the singing shore: Where the gentle breezes whisper and the mighty breakers roar. We will look to the shining ocean, to the East, where the new day dawned: We will sing a song of the edge of the world and the waiting sky beyond. -Poem by Robert Bode (Hope Springs Retreat Center, Ohio. August 2019) About the Composer: Jacob Narverud (b. 1986) is an American composer, arranger, and conductor.
