CoverI Shall Have Had My Day [level: Medium]
Noah Thys: Bio and other works
RELEASED: August 2024
voicing: SATB | catalog number: SBMP 1788 | price: $2.80
accompaniment: a cappella


Belgium composer Noah Thys has beautifully set Alfred Tennyson’s thought-provoking text in this new piece for SATB a cappella choirs (no divisi). Accessible vocal ranges throughout, and each section gets a chance to shine - especially the basses! A lyrical and lovely reflection on the meaning of life: “Then let come what come may. I shall have had my day.”


performance by: Tallgrass Chamber Choir - Jacob Narverud, Conductor
From the album Summer Song available on Spotify and Apple Music [© all rights reserved]

Oh, let the solid ground
Not fall beneath my feet
Before my life has found
What some have found so sweet.

Birds in our wood sang
Ringing through the valleys,
I am here (here, here)
In among the lilies.

Then let come what come may,
What matter if I go mad,
I shall have had my day.

Let the sweet heavens endure,
Not close and darken above me
Before I am quite quite sure
I leave something here of me.

In silent places
By the soil that gave me birth,
I am here (here, here)
In my home’s embraces.

Then let come what come may,
What matter if I go mad,
I shall have had my day.

Excerpts from Maud (XI:I-II, XII:III, XXVI:II)
by Alfred Tennyson (1809-1892)
adapted by Noah Thys
