This playlist contains rehearsal tracks from a (work-in-progress) project aimed at creating tracks of two contrasting tempi that will have each voice part highlighted for at-home rehearsal ease. The 1992 Novello (Watkins-Shaw) edition was used as the main source for these tracks and while it should fit most editions, additional voice doublings have also been added where deemed necessary for our current choral forces. These tracks are not meant to teach dynamics, shaping, or even interpretation, but merely to aid in at-home note woodshedding.

Commissioned by Highland Chamber Choir, AUTUMN is the choral version of a track from my SEASONS piano EP. There was something about it that made me reminisce about Vestmarka, the tranquil national park that nearly borders the doorstep of my childhood home in Norway. I asked Tony Silvestri to write the text, based on pictures from the area and my memories of countless hikes through the radiant forest in the fall.

Feel the falling air,
The light becoming golden;
Trees their colors wear,
Deep and all-enfolding.

The autumn leaves embracing;
But soon they all must fall,
The summer green erasing,
To answer winter’s call.

And here once again
Familiar paths I wander;
Through the westmark wend
The living earth I ponder.

Though fading days are colder,
And soon the darkness long,
My spirit-fire grows bolder,
And in my heart a song.

Even when shadows lengthen,
I’m here where I belong.
