porky & porkie
Neil Ginsberg
Composer Ginsberg has Broadway in his heart as he sets the E. E. Cummings texts of his WHEN STRANGERS MEET choral suite. The four pieces (SBMP 270-273) may be performed alone, or as a group. Each piece has it's own special character. porky & porkie is perhaps the most playful of the group with its da ba jazz-like interludes. Each piece in the group is easy enough for a high school choir, profound enough for college or adult groups. Throughout, the piano accompaniments demonstrate Neil Ginsberg's vast talent to set a mood
