A Lullaby from The Selected Poems of Janet Lewis (2000)Published with permission from Ohio University PressSwallow Press Athens Ohio
Performance NotesA delicate balance must always be maintained between the dynamics of the underpinning chorus with the solo lineWhile the solo line is always intended to preempt the accompanying choral writingthe former is frequently a critical part of the harmonic structure of the overall texture and therefore should not obliterate the harmonic meldingParticular attention should be given when the solo line is found within the choral texture rather than above or below the accompanying harmonies
The rehearsal accompaniment does not contain notes for the soprano soloist
