The tune SEGUNDO is intended specifically for hymn texts in long meter (LM, or 88 88) that can benefit from a sense of gravitas. In performance, the entire hymn may be sung by unison choir, or if desired, the beginning stanzas may be sung by one or more soloists or sections allowing the piece to build over its four stanzas, so that the last stanza, with its soaring descant, pours forth rife with emotion.

Singfonie is more than a hodgepodge of scat syllables, motives, patterns and riffs in a largedesigned form. rather it attempts to unite traditional forms with modern styles. The achievements of past circle song and improvisational techniques are blended with the pure feeling for rhythms and joy in the pursuit of motivic development in the four movements, which are primarily for double choir. Thus, some rhythmic and motivic germ cells are to be rediscovered in various movements, including the pulsing and unfolding tone repetitions of the first and last movements. a new journey of discovery through the world of pop-choral singing. Score available separately - see item CA.982000.
