A Child I Was (1989, rev. 2000), an SATB madrigal, full or soli, about 3:25. (score excerpt) In a gentle 6/8 most of the way, it is shortand sectional, with music that attempts to capture the spirit of each part of the text (my own). It is performable by a good high school or community group, preferably not too large. This piece won 2nd Place in the 21st Annual Choral Composition Festival at Ithaca College in November, 2000; I have a very nice recording by the Corning West High School Occidentals, who performed it at the Festival. $25, available directly from me; for this price, I will send one copy for you to photocopy as needed for your group.
