Lap the Miles : SATB : Dale Jergenson : Dale Jergenson : Sheet Music : CH-1364

Dale Jergenson : Lap the Miles

The opening figure in the piano is a sort-of whoo-whoo of a train whistle and the rhythmic figure starting in m. 6 is supposed to be descriptive of a steam engine chugging along the track. Thomas H. Johnson, in his Introduction to Final Harvest, a collection of Dickinson poems, posits that Emily used dashes as a musical device and capital letters as a means of emphasis. He further writes that she deliberately fractured grammar to achieve special effects. I like to see it lap the Miles is testimony to Johnson's analysis and apparently celebrates that exciting form of transportation in the 19th Century, the railroad.

Dale Jergenson : This Train

This Train was first arranged for the Los Angeles Master Chorale Outreach Ensemble in the mid 1980's.

The piano part is written to simulate the feel of a banjo as the primary accompanying force. The children's chorus part at the end, as indicated in the score, contains an optional divisi into three parts. If desired, sopranos from the SATB chorus may sing any of these notes.

Rollo Dilworth : Travelin' Train

Based on a poem by Edna St. Vincent Millay, this musical setting captures the essential American cultural legacy of blues, gospel and jazz. Incorporating percussive vocal effects, the work builds to a fortissimo climax and then gradually fades away, as if a train disappearing into the distance. Available separately: SATB, SSAA, TTBB. Duration: ca. 3:05.
