Composed by Elizabeth Alexander. Choral. The first dance of spring: tweedle-dum and fiddle-dee-dee! Classical, 20th Century, Spring. Choral Score. With Text language: English. Duration 4 minutes. Seafarer Press #SEA-006-03. Published by Seafarer Press (SF.SEA-006-03).

8.5 x 11 inches. Spring Grass Poem by Carl Sandburg.

Celebrate spring and the return of life! Opening with an earnest longing for the first grass of spring, this dance grows ever more playful, eventually breaking into an exuberant frolic of la-la's, doodah's and fiddle-dee-dee's. Winner of the Brookline Chorus Composition Competition. "Spring Grass" is the final movement of the larger work, "Spring Revels."
Commissioned by Festival Choir of Madison; Eric Townell, conductor (Madison, WI) Winner: Brookline Chorus Composition Competition (Spring Revels)

Composer's Note: In 1982, I wrote a sprightly, mischievous solo song on this delicious Carl Sandburg poem. Twelve years, two babies, and six Wisconsin winters later, I saw another musical possibility for this poem! More longing.....and ultimately, more play!

Text: Spring grass, there is a dance to be danced for you. Come up, spring grass, if only for young feet. Come up, spring grass, young feet ask you. Smell of the young spring grass, You're a mascot riding on the wind horses. You came to my nose and spiffed me. This is your lucky year. Young spring grass just after the winter, Shoots of the big green whisper of the year, Come up, if only for young feet. Come up, young feet ask you. "Spring Grass" Copyright 1928, 1956, by Carl Sandburg. Reprinted by permission of Harcourt, Brace and Jovanovich, Inc.
