It was an easy step to conceive of a work that would take its departure from historical context: that of the slave life of the nineteenth century, together with freedom, as those who experienced it remembered it in interviews, letters, and other documents. The compilation of such documents from nineteenth-century women was in fact my current reading: \"We Are Your Sisters: Black Women in the Nineteenth Century\", edited by Dorothy Sterling. The voices of these women seemed so eloquent, and the subject so compelling, that I chose that historical context for the choral work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI turned to the past also for the musical basis operandi: to the Black shout and spiritual for part of the material, and to the seventeenth-century concept of \"tone\" for other parts. \"Tone\" was a transitional theory that bridged the considerable distance between \"mode\" and \"key.\" Of course, a composer rethinks such concepts in putting them to use in another era, and although the principle is the same, I used it differently. In brief, it is the concept of tone as materials related to a scale, major or minor, in which the functions inhere as individual tones, without reference to key--notably omitting the defining role of upper and lower dominants. This concept allows for use of the scale materials of a key without the functions of the key. Dissonance is not necessary, though it occurs occasionally by context, and chord progressions can be free and rich. \"Tone\" also frees the rhythmic life of the work, which I considered basic to the language I wished to create.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe third section of the work uses a tune known from the nineteenth-century (to that lyric), and I have provided it with a harmonization that transcends the concept of tone, but still based upon it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is my hope to honor the memory of the valiant women whose words speak so strongly so long after they were spoken.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"American Composers Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Physical","offer_id":45479273824476,"sku":"ACA-BORR-043s","price":46.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Physical -

Performers with some jazz or popular music background may even be at an advantage here.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe basic material of Warm Waxing Wail was composed over one week in southern California, atop a small hill in Long Beach. Each day I composed a short one-minute piece, the entire group of which constitutes a sort of \"California journal.\" Upon returning to New England, these pieces were spliced, overlaid, and recombined with one another, rather like the effect of passage of time on series of memories. The sustained mood throughout is dreamy, delicate, meditative, and gently passionate.   - - - Robert Carl\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robert Carl","offers":[{"title":"Physical","offer_id":45501625467100,"sku":"ACA-CARL-052","price":13.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital (PDF)","offer_id":46454439706844,"sku":"ACA-CARL-052e","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8198\/2428\/files\/PagesfromCarl_WarmWaxingWail9x12_Page_1.jpg?v=1743530092"},{"product_id":"ceely-automobile-graveyard-part-1","title":"Automobile Graveyard Parts 1 and 2, with audio media","description":"\u003cp\u003eEmanu, trumpet player- Baritone \u003cbr\u003eDilla, a young woman- Soprano \u003cbr\u003eMilos, a bellhop- Bass-buffo \u003cbr\u003eLasca, a middle-aged woman- Soprano \u003cbr\u003eTiossido, a very young man- Tenor \u003cbr\u003eTope, clarinet player- Tenor \u003cbr\u003eFodere, a mute- Alto Sax\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoundtrack file available with Full Score Digital PDF download or inquire with ACA. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Robert Ceely","offers":[{"title":"Physical - Full score part 1","offer_id":45501634085084,"sku":"ACA-CEEL-039-1","price":133.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Physical - Full score part 2","offer_id":46393229181148,"sku":"ACA-CEEL-039-2","price":129.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital (PDF) Piano Vocal Complete parts 1 and 2","offer_id":46393235931356,"sku":"ACA-CEEL-039-1-2ve","price":59.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital (PDF) Full score complete parts 1 and 2","offer_id":46393244909788,"sku":"ACA-CEEL-039-1-2e","price":89.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8198\/2428\/files\/ACA-CEEL-039-1_Page_1_ad202f07-7a1e-42fd-bb20-861785ffecbc.jpg?v=1727122043"},{"product_id":"ceely-giostra","title":"Giostra","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Robert Ceely","offers":[{"title":"Physical","offer_id":45501635133660,"sku":"ACA-CEEL-032","price":16.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital (PDF)","offer_id":45501635166428,"sku":"ACA-CEEL-032e","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8198\/2428\/files\/PagesfromCeely_Giostraedit_Page_1.jpg?v=1745621013"},{"product_id":"ceely-piano-variations","title":"Piano Variations","description":"\u003cp\u003eComposer's note: Piano Variations was begun on the Isle of Nantucket in the summer of 1981 and completed in Brookline, MA in the winter of 1982.

As I began the work, my research took me to such Pittsburgh sites as the Fort Pitt Museum (dedicated to the French and Indian War), and the Bost Museum in Homestead that houses information on Pittsburgh's steel heritage. The primary thematic materials forming the basis of the quartet are drawn from indigenous tunes and folk music associated with the history of Pittsburgh and the region. In all, eleven melodies from various ethnic groups, nationalities, and specific historical events are used. Thematically, the music folds back on itself in many places, and the tunes and their related motives sometimes reappear from movement to movement, often in counterpoint with each other. Taken as a whole, the work is designed to reflect the spirit of the city and provide the listener with a journey through its diverse evolution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cem\u003eMovement I: The Land at Diondega\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe title refers to the early Native American term for the land where the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers meet to form the Ohio River. The movement begins with a traditional Iroquois \"Dream Song,\" intoned on the solo viola, evoking a Native American resident of the virgin forest land that would be Pittsburgh, chanting alone to the trees. During the course of the movement the French settlers begin to gather, and are represented by a traditional French song from 1755, \"La Courte Paille.\" The movement continues with the introduction of the English settlers through the period song, \"The Little Turtle Dove.\" The ensuing battle among these parties (and their associated melodies in the development section of this 'sonata form' movement), representing the French and Indian War, ends with the British melody emerging from the contrapuntal \"struggle\" of the tunes. The raising of the British flag in November 1758 over Fort Duquesne (soon after to be named Fort Pitt), was the anniversary the Allegheny Quartet was commissioned to commemorate.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cem\u003eMovement II: Magarac's Dream\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe title refers to \"Joe Magarac,\" the Eastern European immigrant's equivalent of the American folk hero, John Henry. Magarac was a mythical figure about whom many stories of heroism were spun. In particular, Magarac was said to have performed feats of extraordinary strength in the Pittsburgh steel mills, and he was a symbolic hero of many steelworkers. The reality of the immigrant's dream of prosperity, however, was usually one of poverty and despair with horrific working conditions and meager salaries. The title of the movement, then, has a double-edged meaning. It is the \"dream\" of the men who came to America to become new Magaracs, but at the same time, the shattering of that dream. The principal melody of this movement, intoned first by the viola, is based on a song written by Andrew Kovaly, a Slovakian immigrant who worked in the Pittsburgh steel mills. \"I Lie in the American Land\" was penned to comfort the wife of Kovaly's steel mill friend, who, newly arrived in America with her children at the behest of her husband, learned that he had just been killed in the mills. The movement is a spiraling elegy of free variations on this tune. The Eastern European folk inflections in the music evoke some of the spirit of those whose lives were consumed by the steel mills. Following the impassioned central section which builds to a climax in the high register, the music floats downward and falls into a traditional Greek tune, \"The Immigrant's Heartbreak,\" a song akin to \"I Lie in the American Land,\" set as a little Greek dance. This tune winds down and we hear a final reprise of \"I Lie in the American Land.\" In the coda, the major key statement of a motive from the melody represents an element of hope, and the final consonant\/dissonant chord that ends the movement is an affirmation of bitter pride.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eMovement III: Men of Steel\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e(Biava Quartet plays the third movement, see youtube link)\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThis scherzo movement grows out of motivic ideas I \"translated\" musically from a recording of actual steel mill sounds. There are whistles, rumbling effects, sirens, and the sounds of crashing metal fragments. Out of the churning machine four tunes emerge, each associated with the steel or coal industries in Pittsburgh. The 19th century African American song, \"Coal Diggin' Blues,\" heard in the unison cello and viola, represents a sort of chanting \"chain gang.\" This tune moves immediately into the Slovakian song, \"Aja Lejber Man,\" (I'm a labor man), another melody associated with the mills. The setting suggests an Eastern European folk band with a violin, an accordion, and a pizzicato double bass. The two tunes then mingle in counterpoint and are swallowed up by the sounds of the mill machines. Two other tunes emerge from the furnace as the machine noises morph first into \"Two Cent Coal,\" a song written about a coal workers' incident in Pittsburgh in 1876. The jig-like setting is followed by \"The Homestead Strike,\" a protest song about the 1892 incident in which Andrew Carnegie locked out striking steel workers resulting in a riot that killed a number of people. “The Homestead Strike” and “Two Cent Coal” then combine, and are absorbed back into the steel mill with the machine triumphant all the way to the coda. Overall, the movement depicts a relentless industrial monster which, at times, reveals the various ethnic groups slaving in its vast belly, only to swallow them up again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cem\u003eMovement IV: River City Mecca\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe movement begins with a chorale-like setting of the folksong, \"Where the Old Allegheny and Monongahela Flow,” a sentimental ballad popular with early 20th century barbershop quartets in Pittsburgh. The movement continues with upbeat variations on the song, \"Pittsburgh Town,\" a tune attributed to Woody Guthrie when he passed through the city in 1941. A short interlude is followed by a minimalist-like section that builds and builds as we emerge from the dreams of the past into the present time, driving south on Interstate 279 toward the modern city of Pittsburgh (the \"Emerald City” in the distance, growing ever closer). At a climactic moment, we break through a sonic wall, and the original Native American Dream Song of the first movement is heard, followed by an extended canon in which 8 tunes overlap in counterpoint (the Dream Song, “Coal Diggin' Blues,” “Aja Lejber Man,” and “I Lie in the American Land,” morphing gradually into a counterpoint of “The Homestead Strike,” “Two Cent Coal,” “Where the Old Allegheny and Monongahela Flow,\" and “Pittsburgh Town”). As the strains of each ethnic group bubble to the surface from their place in the foundations of Pittsburgh, a triumphant coda emerges, and the movement ends in a musical evocation of a shining modern city.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eCommissioned by the Pittsburgh Chamber Music Society in honor of the 250th anniversary of Pittsburgh.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eNew 2025 edition from 2009 original.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Albert Glinsky","offers":[{"title":"Physical - Score + 4 Parts","offer_id":45518136869084,"sku":"ACA-GLIN-005","price":134.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Physical - Score Only","offer_id":46920912371932,"sku":"ACA-GLIN-005s","price":69.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital (PDF) - Score + 4 Parts","offer_id":46920912404700,"sku":"ACA-GLIN-005e","price":100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8198\/2428\/files\/ACA_250_lcover_9x12_6b8ab9c8-1532-4984-b3ff-329ecb4c70e0.jpg?v=1757796133"},{"product_id":"greenberg-quartet","title":"Quartet","description":"","brand":"Laura Greenberg","offers":[{"title":"Physical","offer_id":45518160003292,"sku":"ACA-GREL-012","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital (PDF)","offer_id":48245640429788,"sku":"ACA-GREL-012e","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8198\/2428\/files\/ACA-GREL-012eGreenberg_Quartet-Score_Page_1.jpg?v=1773955706"},{"product_id":"hellermann-afterthoughts-no-1","title":"Afterthoughts No. 1","description":"","brand":"American Composers Alliance","offers":[{"title":"Physical","offer_id":45518177108188,"sku":"ACA-HELM-001","price":13.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Digital (PDF)","offer_id":46485588312284,"sku":"ACA-HELM-001e","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/8198\/2428\/files\/ACA-HELM-001eHellermann_AfterthoughtsNo.1_Page_1.jpg?v=1744906690"},{"product_id":"lipten-slipstream","title":"Slipstream","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposer's Note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSlipstream\u003c\/em\u003e is an arrangement of a piece from 2002 originally scored for flute, guitar, and mallet percussion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fast, repeated note figures found at the outset of this piece are the source of all of the music to follow.
