Chora l literature played a major role in Adolphus Hailstork’s early inspirations, as he grew up singing in choirs. While in college, he created this beautifully plaintive madrigal, setting the words of Orlando Gibbons’ familiar “The Silver Swan.†The result is a strikingly powerful new setting, a perfect partner to the iconic work from the Renaissance, and an early glimpse of Hailstork’s magnificent career filled with choral and vocal music. THE SILVER SWAN is in a traditional tonal language and scored for a cappella S.A.T.B. chorus without divisi, making it easily within reach of choirs of all levels.

Gibbons first wrote the famous setting of his text in 1612. The clever poem shares when a swan's voice is heard and compares it to the state of human character. Burchard not only maintains the poem but a renaissance motet style colored in 21st century harmonies. College and comminity choirs will ennjoy this brilliant work.
