The text of Alfred, Lord Tennyson's There is Sweet Music Here is a wonderful example of word painting. Keep this in mind while learning to sing the music and try to capture the different scenes created through these famous words. The first two measures of accompaniment outline the opening chord in the voices. Crescendo to the word music every time it occurs. In mm. 710, the vocals cascade gently into a dissonance that develops into a full, rich sound. Allow the piano to support the unison lines in mm. 1417 as well as those that contain three-part singing. The piano establishes a consistent undulating tempo in mm. 2225, as if lulling someone to sleep. Be intentional with word/syllabic stress when singing through the quarter notes. Maintain a consistent tempo when singing the eighth notes in mm. 3336. The chord progression helps establish the coolness of the mosses and ivies. Notice the melodic movement in mm. 3738 reflecting the craggy ledge and hanging poppy followed by the unison sleep which ushers in the return of the original melody within the accompaniment. Linger with quiet, full and supported singing during the last three measures.The text of Alfred, Lord Tennyson'sA There is Sweet Music HereA is a wonderful example of word painting.

Commissioned by The Juilliard School’s Music Advancement Program, IMPRESSIONS FROM THE CHINESE ZODIAC is a suite of three characteristic pieces within reach of advanced pre-college saxophonists, and introducing advanced techniques. The work is equally satisfying and impressive for top-level performers. The movements are titled:1. Rooster Singing Out in the Morning2. Monkey Jumping Around in the Forest3. Tiger Walking Down from the Mountain.Commissioned by The Juilliard School for Juilliard’s Music Advancement Program, Impressions from the Chinese Zodiac was composed for any size saxophone in 2022. It consists of three independent movements featuring different musical characteristics with various performing techniques. The inspiration for the music came from impressions of three animal signs (rooster, monkey, and tiger), from the twelve in the Chinese Zodiac.The first piece begins with a repeated phrase imitating a rooster’s loud singing in the morning; the pitch with fluttertongue sounds like the noise from the rooster’s throat), followed by phrases of a pentatonic melody drawn from The Sun Is Rising With Our Joy, a Chinese folk song from Sichuan province. There are descending passages, simulating the dropping-down sound of the singing. Each passage is different from others, each of which should be played accurately and smoothly. The melody is moved up a step with variation, followed by an echo of the rooster singing at the end of the piece. Now the sky is bright, so the rooster call returns up four scale steps!The second piece includes two Chinese folk songs: Thinking of My Darling (from Shanxi province) and Guessing (from Yunnan province). Both songs have large interval skips spanning different registers, as well as microtonal intervals in their original singing, which show the characteristics of the regional musical languages respectively. The tone colors should be matched when registers are changed. The microtonal pitches (quarter-tone flat or three-quarter-tone flat) may be done by bending the tone with one’s lips. The image is the monkey jumping around lively, and the music is played humorously. The high and long pitch with a yelling-down effect at the end of the piece brings the music to an exciting peak.The third piece features the strong and brave tiger, with accented tones in the lowest register. The first 3-pitch motive is developed throughout the piece, while peristaltic chromatic material is formed in various shapes and directions, to show the gestures of a mighty and fierce image.Getting accustomed to special fingerings for the chromatic passages and trills, along with precisely notated articulations, and the techniques of tongue slap and key clicks, are the basic goals to achieve in this piece.
