Mass of the Dead: Requiem for Robert F. Kennedy

Composer: 
Frank Lewin
Scoring: 
chorus, soprano, tenor, and baritone solos, organ, flute, brass instruments ad lib

in English; Commissioned by the Aquinas Foundation of Princeton University; first performance during memorial service for Robert F. Kennedy at Princeton University Chapel, 1969.

Lewin has written: "The impetus for writing this Mass for the Dead came as I stood on the platform at Princeton Junction, amid a crowd of silent onlookers, as the train bearing the body of Robert F. Kennedy slowly rolled by on its way from New York to Washington. Vatican Council II had recently decreed that services were to be conducted in the vernacular, and thus this Requiem Mass was set to English words." The Lord's Prayer from the Requiem is available separately, arranged for either keyboard and solo voice, or keyboard and SATB chorus.

NIGHTINGALE, THE

Composer: 
Ramon Zupko
Instrumentation freestyle: 
Alto, Bar, Bs-Bar, cello, clarinet, flute, percussion, piano, piccolo, soprano, tenor, trombone, trumpet, violin

A multi-media chamber opera, employing both real and virtual sets, large-screen digital projections, recorded electronic music tracks, 8 principals, 8 dancers, a small chorus,(serving in several capacities,) 2 narrators.(recorded) and a chamber ensemble. There are 13 scenes within the 1 act, with 39 seperate "pieces". Creation of new projection visuals as well as sets and costumes would be part of mounting a new production of the work. The narrator parts provide the clues for the visuals and the sets. All other performance materials are available. The work can be performed by college opera-theatre groups. The most difficult parts are the role of the nightingale, and the piano part.
