Composed by Elizabeth Alexander. Vocal. A parent contemplates the serenity of a sleeping child. Classical, 21st Century, Lullaby. Score. With Text language: English. Duration 4 minutes. Seafarer Press #SEA-061-00. Published by Seafarer Press (SF.SEA-061-00).8.5 x 11 inches. Text by Ann Silsbee.
While watching a beloved child slumber, a parent contemplates those things that sleep brings: a release from the drama of the day, deep cycles of breath, and complete authenticity.
Composer's Note: The small, disciplined form of Sleep Song - nine 9-syllable lines - is one which my friend and poet Ann Silsbee explored throughout her intimate book, Naming the Disappeared. What captured my musical imagination was the rhythm of breathing reflected in this poem, a rhythm of which singers are viscerally aware. What captured my spirit was nearly the same thing: the beauty, power and vulnerability of breath itself, that most basic sign of life.
Range: b'-e.
