nach Gedichten von Hermann Hesse-After emigrating from Berlin at the age of 16 the Jewish composer Ursula Mamlok wrote Four German Songs in 1958 while studying at the Manhattan School of Music. Based on texts from Hermann Hesse's collection Vom Baum des Lebens the songs reflect the uprooting from home. Mamlok juxtaposes Hesse's melancholy with an intensive tonal image which proceeds from expressionism with short motifs and tonal transgression yet ventures into new spheres of expression.

Poulenc's song cycle  Chansons Gaillardes was composed in 1925-1926 during the post-war euphoria. The cycle is essential to aspiring advanced Baritones. Francis Poulenc (1899-1963) was a highly prolific composer and remains popular to this day. Chansons Gaillardes was composed towards the beginning of the composer's career for Baritone Pierre Bernac. At the first performance Poulenc himself played the piano and the song cycle was immediately a hit. Chansons Gaillardes is made up of eight songs which alternate between lively and slow tempos; 1) TheFickle Mistress 2) Drinking Song 3) Madrigal 4) Summoning the Fates 5) Bacchanalian Couplets 6) The Offering 7) The Beautiful Youth and 8) Serenade. As a song cycle with much variation Poulenc's Chansons Gaillardes is an exciting addition to the Baritone repertoire.

An Everywhere of Silver 2. I started Early ? took my Dog 3. Though the great Waters sleep 4. The waters chased him as he fled 5. Water makes many Beds 6. Three times ? we parted ? Breath ? and I 7.

Baritone Voice And Piano Performing Score-Composed in 2012 the two pieces in Sadie Harrison’s Heartoutbursts! take their inspiration from traditional English folk.'...in the folk-song there is to be found the complete history of a people recorded by the race itself through the heartoutbursts of its healthiest output. It is a history compiled with deeper feeling and more understanding than can be found among the dates and data of thegreatest historian...'(Percy Grainger 1922)In 1905 Joseph Taylor won a Lincolnshire folksong competition with his rendition of Brigg Fair a song he had learnt from a gypsy. Australian composer Percy Graingersubsequently published a setting in his Lincolnshire Posy with Delius using the tune in his rhapsody Brigg Fair. Both composers sought to vivify the tradition of English folksong celebrating not only the ancient tunes and words but also the qualities of particular folksingers like Joseph Taylor.Harrison’s own Australian Heartoutbursts! follow unashamedly in the Grainger tradition with echoes of the original folktunes underpinning both songs Brigg Fair and The Seeds of Love. Although different in character both texts use similar images as analogies for the joys and despairing associated with love - the lark and violet symbolize youth the lily as virginity the red rose as true love and the willow representing falsehood and abandonment.

Composer's Notes:Heavenly Things is my fourteenth song-cycle but the first with piano accompaniment. I mention this because when I was asked to write this piece my first reaction was ‘what can I make of amedium that seems to me quintessentially 19th century’ and I was doubtful that I could produce anything that I would be happy with. Then I went to hear Christopher Maltman and Malcolm Martineau and was so impressed by the magicand intensity of their performance that I saw a ‘way in’ to what at first had seemed a problem. The choice of poems was obviously going to be crucial and I chose the Donne Holy Sonnets because of the dramatic possibilities theyoffer and the huge range of emotion that they encompass. In these settings the piano is always more than a mere accompaniment it tends either to be in dialogue with the voice or to have its own musical agenda which the voicereacts to in an independent but parallel way.
