Composed by Liz Nedela. 20th Century,Chamber,Classical,Contemporary,Contest,Festival. Score. 12 pages. Liz Nedela #999589. Published by Liz Nedela (A0.1418039).This piece is based on a poem by e.e. cummings. The subject matter is the special
heaven that would be created for the poet’s mother. The music shadows, augments,
and illuminates the rendition of the poem. In keeping with poetic symbolism, the piano
uses motifs and musical phrases to emulate the soprano throughout the piece
The tone of the piece is somewhat minor and modal; however, please portray a light-
hearted interpretation—it should never be heavy or dark. The poet is uplifting his mother
to the highest stature possible, and portrays his father as devoted and loving towards
her.
The key is atonal; however, various tonality implications are heard throughout. The
piano pedal should be complimentary to the piece, with care not to be noticed or over-
bearing.
Please Note: there are two other versions of this piece by this composer:
One is for solo piano
One is for the ensemble of Soprano, Violin, Bassoon, Cello
Also please note: the mp3 is from computer notation; the the soprano does not sing words;
please sing along with the mp3 following the text.
