Composed by Carson Cooman. Contemporary. Score and parts. 22 pages. Musik Fabrik Music Publishing #3030515. Published by Musik Fabrik Music Publishing (A0.533602).The Sky About to Open (2004) for orchestra was written for and is dedicated to composer
Judith Weir, on the occasion of her 50th birthday.
The work is based on musical material from Desiring the Solicitude of Rain (2003-04) for
tenor and chamber orchestra, based on a text of Kathleen Wakefield. The title of this work
comes from the poem. (The title also references Weir's work The Welcome Arrival of Rain
(2000) for orchestra.)
The work is a brief fanfare of spacious character -- filled with anticipatory energy: the sky
pregnant with rain about to fall.
