Composed by Phil Beaman. Classical,Romantic Period. 2 pages. Phil Beaman #945886. Published by Phil Beaman (A0.1361424).
Total Eclipse is an Art Song. I have used several lines of poetry from Newburgh Hamilton (1741) and set them to unique music that is a fusion of Classical, Romantic, and Modern. The music expressively drifts from major to minor to modal every few measures, inspired by the themes of darkness and light. This approachable piece of music is a good introduction for singers to the interpretation of an Art Song and is a dramatic performance piece for recital or concert. It could even be used as a sing-along for the celebration of an actual eclipse!
(Haydn also used variations of this text to create several Recitatives and an Aria for his oratorio Samson.)
2 pages, 1:50 minutes
