I am black (Song of Songs)
By Andrew Schultz
Regular price
$15.00
Sale
Soprano voice and piano, c.1.35'. Grade 8-A.MusThe text is drawn from the Jerusalem Bible translation of The Song of Songs and depicts a woman's longing for her absent lover. It is unknown whether the woman is swarthy from outdoor work or black skinned racially. In the original text the sequence opens: 'I am black but lovely'. The implied social inequality of the lovers adds strongly to the poignancy of their mutual absorption.
