 Notes and Translations

Viking Chorale

O Joy! - Words and translation by Kitty Brazelton of Psalm 77:1-6

O joy! (joy, joy, joy)
Have we forsaken sadness?
Obliterate the madness of little things
To sing, to sing, to sing out!

Abandon despair all ye who enter here

Cast off heart break
Discard care
To sing, to sing, to sing out!

I cried unto God with my voice,

And he listened to me.
In the day of my trouble,
I sought out the Lord;
My pain stretched into night
And never ceased:
My soul refused to be comforted.

Then I remembered God and cried out loud;

I sang to myself and my spirit swooned.

My opening eyes were seized;

I was so agitated I could not speak.

I have thought of those old days

which I hold in my mind
For years to eternity
And I meditate now
On my own heart’s song that night
And sing it to my spirit.

From the Composer:

The outer shell of “O Joy!” is what Brit rockers call a “rave-up.” For
VocalEssence’s 40th birthday, I wanted to celebrate why we join together
to sing. In the center, the first six lines of Psalm 77 describe individual
vocal arts: crying out loud and being listened to, inability to speak until
the subject remembers God, cries out loud and sings to her or himself.
The memory of the song is then carried for years as comfort against pain,
terror, loneliness and darkness. How better to celebrate the voice than to
sing about its power to heal?

Three Madrigals - texts by William Shakespeare

“O Mistress Mine” from Twelfth Night, Act II, Scene 3
O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O, stay and hear; your true love’s coming,
That can sing both high and low:
Trip no further, pretty sweeting;
Journeys end in lovers meeting,
Every wise man’s son doth know.
[...]
What is love? ’tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What’s to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty;
Then come kiss me, sweet and twenty,
Youth’s a stuff will not endure.

“Take, oh, take those lips away” from Measure for Measure, Act IV, Scene 1
Take, O, take those lips away,
That so sweetly were forsworn;
And those eyes, the break of day,
Lights that do mislead the morn:
But my kisses bring again, bring again;
Seals of love, but sealed in vain, sealed in vain.

“Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more!” from Much Ado about Nothing,
Act II, Scene 3
Sigh no more, ladies, sigh no more,
Men were deceivers ever,
One foot in sea and one on shore,
To one thing constant never:
Then sigh not so, but let them go,
And be you blithe and bonny,
Converting all your sounds of woe
Into Hey nonny, nonny.
 Sing no more ditties, sing no moe,
Of dumps so dull and heavy;
The fraud of men was ever so,
Since summer first was leafy:
Then sigh not so, & c.

From the Conductor:

Emma Lou Diemer’s “Three Madrigals” have been a staple of the choral
repertoire since the 1960s, and work well for both developing and mature
voices. In this set, Diemer curates three very different songs from three
different plays by Shakespeare and creates a narrative of young love: the
head-over-heels infatuation, the crushing despair of heartbreak, and the
desire to move on. We found ourselves swimming in contemporary
versions of this trope - Taylor Swift songs, Christopher Sparks novels, et
cetera. Diemer constructs these disparate scenes into one coherent tale
through shared meters, motives, and keys. We were fascinated to discover
that these famous texts were not said by principal characters in the plays,
but were rather framed as “songs” by less-known characters - that even in
the original plays, these were conceived as lyrics, not as prose.

Cantala

Like Flowers Undone, Text: Green - D. H. Lawrence (1885-1930)

The dawn was apple-green,
The sky was green wine held up in the sun,
The moon was a golden petal between.
She opened her eyes, and green
They shone, clear like flowers undone
For the first time, now for the first time seen

Dilèm, Text: Gabriel T. Guillaume (b. 1939)

From the Composer: I’ve had the pleasure and the pain of setting my father’s
text to music throughout my career. As a deep thinker, he often writes
poetry that force me to delve into subject matters that I would normally
not ponder on a daily basis. This was the case with “Dilèm” - it was an
emotionally challenging piece to compose. But like all the other profound
texts my father has provided, “Dilèm” contains powerful insight that I will
never cease to learn from.
When asked to elaborate on “Dilèm”, my father, Gabriel T. Guillaume,
writes:
“Human life is a dilemma. We live every day in some sort of confusion
that prevents us from flourishing fully. We are body and mind; our daily
battle consists of searching for the balance and harmony between these
two elements that make up our human reality. This battle is not easy, but
we must persevere while cultivating values of love, respect and justice
towards ourselves, towards others and towards nature.”
- Sydney Guillaume

Disgusting dilemma, repugnant dilemma,

Infernal dilemma… human dilemma.
You see that my heart is not happy, don’t ask me why.
You see that I am dancing, don’t say I am doing great.
I’m not up, I’m not down,
Life has me backwards!
I’m fighting to go up, dilemma knocks me to the ground.
I’m fighting to move forward, dilemma is holding me back.
I am a whirlwind of joy and of suffering
And my life has forever lost its cadence.
The gangrene of evil disturbed my conscience,
And I searched to no avail for the ultimate salvation.
Ah! Repulsive dilemma, disgusting dilemma,
Infernal dilemma… human dilemma!!
Who will deliver me from this fatal dilemma?
And will good triumph over this evil?
And yet in the depths of my heart I have not lost hope,
The light of truth will destroy darkness.
When love unfolds, all devious lies come to an end.
At that time, I will sing: amen, alleluia.
Fathomless dilemma, you are my world,
Now, always and everywhere on this earth...
Repulsive dilemma, disgusting dilemma,
Fascinating dilemma… human dilemma.

Canticum Novum (Psalm 96:1-2)

Cantate Domino canticum novum: Sing to the Lord a new song:
Cantate Domino omnis terra. Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
Cantate Domino, Sing to the Lord
et benedicte nomini ejus: bless His name:
annuntiate de die in diem salutare show forth His salvation from day to
ejus. day.
Canticum Novum is a joyful, bright, and jubilant work. The motive
introduced by the first sopranos and low altos in the first measure is
followed by a series of chords in the inner voices. These chords repeat
seven consecutive times (like a mantra) on the text “canticum novum”
using an irregular ostinato rhythm (3+2+2+2). The number seven signifies
the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit in Christianity: wisdom, understanding,
counsel, knowledge, fortitude, piety, and fear of the Lord. - Ivo Antognini

Fall, Sweet Music, Text: For Music - Bryan Waller Procter (1787-1874)
Now whilst he dreams, O Muses, wind him round!
Send down thy silver words, O murmuring Rain!
Haunt him, sweet Music! Fall, with gentlest sound, -
Like dew, like night, upon his weary brain!
Come, Odours of the rose and violet, - bear
Into his charmed sleep all visions fair!
So may the lost be found,
So may his thoughts by tender Love be crowned,
And Hope come shining like a vernal morn,
And with its beams adorn
The Future, till he breathes diviner air,
In some soft Heaven of joy, beyond the range of Care!

Concert Choir

Velero mundo, text by Francisco Lárez Granados

En el camino que la rosa apunta
de un torvo sembrador suena el arado.
Y la vigilia entre la noche anuncia
la presencia febril del sobresalto.
Voy en mi sitio en el velero mundo
vestido de silencio y de tu nombre
con el instinto desatado a punto
de fiera pugna que la vida impone.
Cortada linfa latiguea mi carne
mecida por salobres ebriedades
la circundante lobreguez
rubrican ramalazos de luz.
Ramalazos de luz mientras mi alma
de tu cariño en la divina llama
Acelera el temple de su fe marina.

From the Conductor:

While many students in the ensemble speak and study Spanish, we found
this extraordinary poem difficult to translate. Granados uses imagery of
land and sea, but, with the guidance of Horacio Contreras (who knew
Modesta Bor), we have come to understand this as fundamentally a love
poem. Our protagonist is in a feverish/excited state at night, and feels
untethered from the daily struggles of life to think affectionately about
their beloved. The poetry and the music both flow seamlessly between
consciousness and dream-state, between tension and resolution.

Riba Faronika, poem by Veno Taufer

Po morju plava through the sea floats

riba faronika faronika the fish


oglodana do repa all eaten up to the tail

riba faronika faronika the fish


jesus ulovi jesus catch!

jesus pomnoži jesus multiply!
zavolj sivih globočin for the sake of the grey depths
zavolj velikih in majhnih rib for the sake of big and small fishes

From the Composer:

The story about the fish called Faronika is one of old Slovenian folk
legends (which is no longer a part of living folk tradition). The fish
Faronika was supposed to be the queen at the bottom of the sea. If she
moves, the earth shakes, which can lead to a great catastrophes. The name
of the fish is related to the Pharaoh’s warriors, who were eaten by the Red
Sea and turned into fishes, which only occasionally take on a human form.
In the original folksong of Faronika, Jesus asks the fish not to move
forward, because the world will be damned. The contemporary Slovene
poet Veno Taufer took this legend as a theme for this short poem.

You Cannot Lose My Love, Music and lyrics by Sara Groves

You will lose your baby teeth.
At times, you’ll lose your faith in me.
You will lose a lot of things,
But you cannot lose my love.
You may lose your appetite,
Your guiding sense of wrong and right.
You may lose your will to fight,
But you cannot lose my love.
You will lose your confidence.
In times of trial, your common sense.
You may lose your innocence,
But you cannot lose my love.

From the Conductor:

Educational theorist Thomas Carruthers is often cited for his quote, “a
teacher is one who makes himself progressively unnecessary.” As we
develop young artists to engage with the world after Lawrence, our deepest
hope is that they go forth with the mindset, habits, and skills to navigate it
well. In that spirit, honoring the many seniors on stage who will be
graduating, the students did all the ‘heavy lifting’ in our preparation for
this work, from decisions about where to breathe to questions of timbre,
balance, and phrasing. This poem is beautifully multivalent, and can be
read as a song from the divine to a human, from parent to child, from
friend to friend or spouse to partner, and more. We sing it to
communicate the special bond that we share with each other in the choral
experience, and to celebrate our graduating seniors.

 Graduating Seniors

Please join us in celebrating these students. Here they share the degree(s)
and major(s) they are completing, their plans/hopes for the year to come,
and a favorite memory from their choral experience.

Sally Alvarado, Bachelor of Music in Choral/General Education, sang in

Cantala and Concert Choir, will be student-teaching in Choral and
General Music and English Language Learners. After certification, Sally
will move to the Chicago area to pursue a teaching career at a public
school or with a non-profit organization. “One of my favorite memories
from Concert Choir this year was during movement day with Margaret
Paek, when we all had to roll around on the floor and walk across the
room on our hands and knees while we sang our concert repertoire.”

Clio Briggs, Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance, sang with Cantala

and Concert Choir, will be pursuing a Master’s in Opera Performance at
the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. “Choir Björk lip sync. Whether
or not my team wins it’s always a triumph.”

Anne Marie Carden, Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance, sang with

Cantala and Concert Choir, will be pursuing a Master of Music in Vocal
Performance at Boston Conservatory this fall. “My favorite memory was
performing the Bruckner Mass (even though I almost passed out during
bows) it was a beautiful piece and the whole experience made my first big
work so memorable.”

Andrew Green, Bachelor of Arts in Music (Vocal Performance), sang in

Viking Chorale and Concert Choir, hopes to travel the world and
perform. “My favorite memory of Concert Choir is not a single memory,
but a rather a collection of memories. It’s natural for a choir to connect to
some songs more or less than others. The feeling of singing with Concert
Choir when we are truly connected to a piece is indescribable, and
constitutes a number of my favorite and most inspiring memories I have
made at Lawrence.”

Christina Hanson, Bachelor of Music in Composition (Innovation/

Entrepreneurship emphasis), sang with Viking Chorale, is getting married
in July and plans to expand her private piano study in the Fox Valley. “I
went through a difficult time fall term of my junior year and Viking
Chorale had programmed How Can I Keep from Singing. This is a worship
song that means a lot to me: If Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, how
can I keep from singing? It was a good reminder that no matter what I
went through, God is there for me!”

Martha Hellermann, Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance, sang with

Cantala and Concert Choir, will be pursuing a Master’s in Opera
Performance at the Boston Conservatory. “My proudest moment in choir
was winning the Lip Sync Battle during our Björklunden retreat my senior
year to one of the greatest songs of all time – Sk8er Boi by Avril Lavigne.”

Keira Elaine Jett, Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance and Bachelor

of Arts in Gender Studies, sang with Cantala and Concert Choir, plans to
reflect and recuperate for a year, and then pursue graduate studies.
“Singing the Hailstork works changed my life. It was easily the most
impactful and challenging and beautiful choral project I’ve worked on in
my time at Lawrence.”

Arielle Kaye, Bachelor of Arts in Performing Arts Administration (self-

designed) and Music, sang in Viking Chorale, Cantala, and Concert
Choir, will be moving to Haifa, Israel in the fall for a teaching fellowship.
Her favorite memory is “singing Leonard Bernstein’s Chichester Psalms
freshman year!”

Kin Le, Bachelor of Arts in Economics, Bachelor of Music in Vocal

Performance, sang in Viking Chorale, Cantala, and Concert Choir, will be
heading to the East Coast to hopefully work in development for non-profit
organizations. “The Presto Tour would definitely be my number one
memory when I think of being in a choir at Lawrence. Usually, I only get
to see everyone four hours a week; but during the three-day tour, the total
amount of time we spent together would be a combination of almost a
term singing in the choir. It was such a life changing experience, and I
know I will remember it for a long time.”

Rosa Lemos, Bachelor of Arts in Music and English, sang with Cantala
and Concert Choir, will be attending the Frost School of Music at the
University of Miami to pursue a Master’s in Music Education. Her
strongest memory is “being humbled by the glorious Chicago Children’s
Choir on the Presto Tour this past spring.”
Xi (Zoey) Lin, Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Arts and Bachelor of Music in
Piano Performance, played piano with Viking Chorale, will work as an
actor and pianist for theatre productions. Her favorite memory is “when
sometimes Dr. Sieck was playing an imaginary piano in the air and I was
actually able to dub to it.”

Annie Mercado, Bachelor of Music in Vocal Performance, sang with

Cantala and Concert Choir, will be pursuing a Master of Music degree at
the University of Minnesota. “My favorite memory with choirs at
Lawrence was singing with the Chicago Children’s choir on the Presto
Tour this year.”

Madeleine Moran, Bachelor of Music in Composition, sang in Cantala

and Concert Choir, is moving back to Washington, D.C., to pursue a
freelance career in songwriting and composition. “Singing William Grant
Still's Plain-Chant for America in the fall of 2016, just three days after the
presidential election, was one of the more powerful experiences I’ve had
performing with a choir.”

Charlotte Noble, Bachelor of Arts in History and Bachelor of Music in

Vocal Performance (graduating in 2019), sang with Cantala all four years,
will be finishing both degrees next year and applying to graduate vocal
programs. “I’ll never forget the feeling of support and acceptance present
within Cantala’s flock of geese. Despite members changing with each year,
the ensemble’s maturity, strength, power, and compassion lived on. It
reminded me that “I have a voice,” and to “rise up” with my fellow
women. While “the rest is still unwritten” for me, Cantala will always be
close to my heart.”

John Perkins, Bachelor of Arts in Music (Vocal Music), Minor in Russian,

sang with Concert Choir, will be singing in the Cathedral Choir at the
Washington National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. this fall. “One of
my favorite parts of Concert Choir is the moment everyone walks into
rehearsal, especially when compared to the moment everyone walks out.
There are so many different energy levels and moods that focusing can be
hard, but you can feel us leaning on each other and supporting each other
through the rehearsal so that at the end, we’ve had a really productive
rehearsal and everyone feels good about what we accomplished.”
Kyle Schleife, Bachelor of Music in Choral/General Education, sang in
Viking Chorale and Concert Choir, will be student-teaching. “My
freshman year at the masterwork of Bach’s St. John Passion, at the final
dress rehearsal the fire alarm went off, and three choirs, a huge orchestra,
and faculty had to evacuate the chapel. Unforgettable rehearsal!

Emily Stanislawski, Bachelor of Arts in Biology, sang with Viking

Chorale, will be spending the next year working and then attending
graduate school for Entomology. “One very beautiful spring day, Dr.
Sieck let us have a rehearsal outside! It was wonderful.”

Eva Tourangeau, Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics, sang with Viking

Chorale, Hybrid Ensemble, and Cantala, will be pursuing a career in data
science. “I remember visiting Lawrence as a high school senior and getting
to attend a Concert Choir rehearsal, and being completely blown away by
the power, emotion, and musicianship the group demonstrated even as
they were first sight reading a new piece. I had never sung with such a
professional group before, and was in awe that I’d get a chance to be a part
of one of these incredible ensembles while at Lawrence.”

Isa Vazquez-Thorpe, Bachelor of Arts in Biology, sang in Viking Chorale,

hopes to go to medical school and pursue a career in forensic pathology.
Her favorite memory is “singing Masterpiece by Paul Drayton in my
sophomore year. It was such a beautiful challenge yet hilariously fun song
to sing and trying to encapsulate the musical styles of so many different
composers from classical music history was a feat I think I’d only
experience at Lawrence.”
We gratefully acknowledge the important role all of the Lawrence faculty play
in preparing our students academically and musically, from our colleagues in
music history and theory, to our colleagues in sight-singing, aural skills and
keyboard skills and to our colleagues in the liberal arts. We particularly wish
to recognize and thank the voice, instrumental, and keyboard studio faculty
members.
