The source of this composition is the folk song 'The Turtle Dove'. The song (sometimes titled 'Ten Thousand
Years') exists in many versions and sources in England and America, with the
earliest sources being 18th century English leaflets. In all its versions, it is a parting song – often ostensibly
the parting of a couple of young lovers during wartime. The following version reframes the song's poignant content
in the context of current events : notably, the separation of detained children from their families at the United States
border under the current administration.
The lyrics (which here reflect a combination of several original versions of the song) take on a new meaning in
the mouths of young people. As stipulated by the competition guidelines (but also in keeping with the piece's
message) the groups of musicians may play together (giving a feeling of plenitude) or separately (in which case
an absence is felt).
Thoughout, citations of the Turtle Dove's natural call may be found : the soprano recorder part beginning at m 25 , for
example. Certain dynamics and harmonics, as well as the text, were not possible to convey in the midi. The
affective climate evolves from innocent to troubled. If the small reprise at mm 62-63 is considered an infraction
to competition guidelines, mm 60- 61 may be simply omitted.
