Young Today [level: Medium]
Dominick DiOrio: Bio and other works | Robyn Lana Choral Series

RELEASED: August 2024

voicing: SSAA | catalog number: SBMP 1790 | duration: 3'58" | price: $2.90
accompaniment: piano

“The world is young today, forget the gods are old.” The composer has created a musical world for this unique text that is resilient, strong, and full of energy. A fine choice for advanced four-part treble choirs, with extended ranges and stacked harmonies in a highly repetitive gospel-style. The bold and brassy piano part makes this a fun concert closer!

The world is young today:
Forget the gods are old,
Forget the years of gold
When all the months were May.

A little flower of Love
Is ours, without a root,
Without the end of fruit,
Yet ― take the scent thereof.

There may be hope above,
There may be rest beneath;
We see them not, but Death
Is palpable ― and Love.

Digby Mackworth Dolben (1 848-1 867)
