Product Description

I Sing of a Maiden (I syng of a mayden) is a Middle English poem or carol of the 15th century celebrating the Annunciation and the Virgin Birth of Jesus. The poem is written from a first person point of view, and contains five quatrains. No evidence of original music is known to exist, though obviously it is meant to be sung.

This short piece was written for SAB chorus. The text used here is in a more modern English flavour for easier singability, although makeles [matchless] and ches [chose] are still used. It is written in A Phrygian with switch to A Major in the final verse. Apologies to the Altos for all the E4 notes.

Vocal Ranges: Soprano: E4-E5, Alto: D4-B4, Baritone: Bb3-C4
