General Information
To give listeners some advance knowledge of Steven Darsey’s oratorio setting of Sidney Lanier’s “The Marshes of Glynn,” we provide audio examples and the musical score via links below. The audio examples derive principally from a live performance reading by the Chancel Choir of Glenn Memorial UMC and the Meridian Chorale from March 2, 2008, in Glenn Memorial Auditorium, Emory University.
The sound files below connect primarily to acoustic recordings from our 2008 performance with some digital insertions of additional music and orchestration Steven subsequently composed. The score we provide here is for the 9/10/2022 premiere performance, which will vary from the audio provided in minor and occasional major details.
The music we include here represents most, but not all of the 40’ oratorio. If you want to hear the entire work as a whole, go here for a complete recording of the 2008 performance reading with piano and organ accompaniment. These, however, do not include Steven’s subsequent additions and orchestrations.
We post these examples from the whole oratorio as separate segments so that one can go directly to their desired sections. Once that choice is completed, you can click the right arrow to advance to the next, or simply select another section from the directory. It may take a bit to get accustomed to the interface. Score section page numbers are included below.
Performers in the 2008 performance reading: Cynthia Shepherd, soprano; Katherine Murray, mezzo soprano, Timothy Miller, tenor, Stephen Ozcomert, bass-baritone. Todd Skrabanek, pianist; Timothy Albrecht, organist. Steven Darsey, conductor.
