White Moon SATB - Julia J. Evans
Premiered at my senior recital, April 10, 2024, in the Ballroom at Southern Virginia University.
Text by Carl Sandburg (1878-1967)
There's mystery and magic in this poem by Carl Sandburg, as the moon is both ever-changing and ever-constant. I love the simplicity and contrasting imagery in Sandburg’s words, and had an incredibly fun time playing with note clusters and time changes in the process of setting this text.

Premiered at my senior recital, April 10, 2024, in the Ballroom at Southern Virginia University.

Featured in that album, "Pretty Saro" is an English folk ballad that died out in England by the mid-1700s, but later gained popularity in the Appala...

Text by Marina Tsvetaeva (1892-1941), transl. by Ilya Kaminsky & Jean Valentine This piece was written as a parody of Johannes Brahms' "Abendständchen" from the collection "Drei Gesänge, op. 42."

Premiered at my senior recital, April 10, 2024, in the Ballroom at Southern Virginia University. Text: John 14:27 This piece was written as an exercise composing "in the shoes" of Thomas Tallis, an English Renaissance composer who lived 1505-1585. I love and admire his anthem "If ye love me" and wrote this as a parody, drawing its text from the same New Testament chapter as Tallis' work.

Movement one, "a lungful of fog", evokes a feeling of traveling through a thick mist enveloping every part of body and mind. D...
