It is comprised of four Walt Whitman poems and set for Mixed Choir (featuring an assortment of vocal soloists) and 2 percussionists (one largely on pitched percussion, the other, non-pitched).</p> <p>First performed by the Vassar Chamber Singers, Cantus was originally choreographed by Paul Mosley, director of the Vassar Repertory Dance Theatre in 2001.</p> <p>The Poems are:  I am he that aches with amorous love; Oh Captain, my captain; Hast never come to thee an hour; and Lingering last drops.</p> <p>Listen to the audio, take a look at the title pages and read the poems by clicking <a href="cantus.htm" target="_blank">here</a>.  If you like, you can order a copy of the music:</p> <p style="word-spacing: 0; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0">Score - $24.00 </p> <p style="word-spacing: 0; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0">Vocal Book - $6.00 </p> <p style="word-spacing: 0; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0">Percussion parts and performance license - $43.00</p> <p style="word-spacing: 0; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"> </p> <p style="word-spacing: 0; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0">Please add $7.00 for shipping and send your check to:</p> <p style="word-spacing: 0; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0"> </p> <dl> <div align="left"> <dt>Howard Kilik</dt> </div> <div align="left"> <dt>15 Highland View Rd.</dt> </div> <div align="left"> <dt>Mahopac, NY 10541-3111</dt> </div> </dl> <p>(allow 2 weeks for shipping)</p> <p>While you're here, visit the rest of <a href="../default.htm" target="_blank">KilikMusic.com</a> and don't forget to <font color="#333333">sign the <a href="Guestbook.htm">Guest Book</a>!</font></p> <h5 align="center"><font face="Times New Roman, Times New Roman, Times" color="#3399FF"><span class="text22">contact: <a href="mailto:webmaster@kilikmusic.com" target="_blank">webmaster@kilikmusic.com</a></span></font></h5> <p> </p> </font></td> </tr> </table> </body>
