The text (in English) for Come Away draws from the Song of
Solomon, in the Hebrew Scripture. The original prose is the serenade
of a young man inviting his beloved to follow him for a time of romance.
In Come Away, the words evolve into a ballad of unrequited love.
Nice change of pace for recitals or sacred settings!
Requires 4 mallets. adv. high school/college.

Brett Jones
Sound sample - Kyrie
Sound sample - Gloria
Scored for
mezzo-soprano and vibraphone. This work consists of two short but challenging
movements: Kyrie & Gloria, and makes use of Greek and Latin texts.
The vibraphone part does not serve merely as accompaniment to the
soprano, but rather in many instances displays interesting rhythmic and
melodic counterpoint to the sopranos melodic lines. The vibraphone
part requires four-mallets and intermediate/advanced technique.
This piece offers a unique setting of these texts and would be
appropriate both for sacred settings and the concert hall!
