Esurientes

'Happiness' - a beloved song from the Sweet Tones / SBC tradition, sung here by the 1976 group. "Happiness is singing together when day is through, and happiness is those who sing with you."  
• text (Clark Gesner):
Happiness is two kinds of ice cream,
finding your skate key, 
telling the time. 
Happiness is tying your shoelace,
learning to whistle the very first time. 
Happiness is playing the drum 
in your own school band,
and happiness is walking hand in hand. 

Happiness is five different crayons, 
knowing a secret,
climbing a tree. 
Happiness is finding a nickel,
catching a firefly,
setting it free. 
Happiness is being alone every now and then,
and happiness is coming home again. 

Happiness is having a sister, 
sharing a sandwich,
getting along. 
Happiness is singing together 
when day is through, 
and happiness is those who sing with you. 

Happiness is morning and evening, 
daytime and nighttime too. 
for happiness is anyone and anything at all 
that's loved by you. 
(by Clark Gesner from "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown")

Absentia - concerto for violin and chamber orchestra

Canadian Paul Nash's lyric arrangement of this classic French carol is sung here by the Chamber Singers of Haverford & Bryn Mawr Colleges (Dr. Marian Dolan, cond.); Janine Guglielmino, solo.
"Where is that goodly fragrance flowing
to steal the senses all away?
adorns the air, and nothing like it
the shepherds sensed in fields in May?
Where is that goodly fragrance flowing
to steal the senses all away?
A light so bright, a beam so piercing
it turns our darkness into day...."
