Call Me But Love

Commissioned for the 2014 Eastern Division ACDA Junior High choir, Silvey's musical setting employs text excerpted from the balcony scene from Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. The women sing Juliet's lines and the men provide the voice of Romeo as they each recite monologues defining themselves as the classic pair of star-crossed lovers wishing for a simpler world. Clever, whimsical and highly innovative, you don't want to miss programming this piece.
