Langston Hughes (1902-1967) was an American novelist, playwright, short story writer, and columnist. He was one of the pioneers in the style of poetry known as ‘jazz poetry’. He came from mixed-race ancestry, and in his early years was an educator and advocate for African-American rights. He lived much of his adult life in Harlem, and received numerous honours and awards in his lifetime.

“Shepherd’s Song at Christmas” is a poem in which a young shepherd boy wonders what gift he should take to the infant Jesus. He first suggests a song, then a lamb, and finally he pledges to give his heart.

This setting was made for the annual Christmas concert at St Mary’s College in Auckland. It was written to involve both Mary’s Schola (conducted by the composer) and the school’s younger choir.

This piece comes from the short cycle Down on the Farm which sets five pieces by New Zealand poets. The texts all deal with aspects of farming or typical farm landscapes. This piece (the second piece of the cycle) is a brief Ruth Dallas poem about the constantly changing colours of the flowers in a summer meadow.

Down on the Farm was written for performance by Mercury Bay Community Choir (Whitianga) in a concert to be conducted by the composer in May 2011.

“Nurses’ Song” is the name of two related poems by English poet William Blake (1757-1827). While both speak of children playing outside watched by their Nurse, the first version published in 1789’s “Songs of Innocence”, is a positive view of play and innocence, with no hint of the things that night (or life) will bring. The second , and shorter, version published in 1794’s “Songs of Experience” shows the Nurse as someone who is bitter and jealous of the freedom of children’s play.

This setting was written for the inaugural SingDownunder choral festival in Auckland, as a piece for the combined treble-voice choirs to perform.

This setting continues a series of pieces using texts from the tradition of the African-American spirituals. It uses typical melodic and rhythmic ideas from pieces in that tradition. The text focuses on the idea, found in Psalm 23, of walking “through the valley of the shadow of death”. If Jesus is our leader, then we need fear nothing, and we shall walk in peace.
