The 6 Madrigals from Shakespeare, Op. 74, when compared to those of Op. 9, written more than 40 years earlier, are somewhat less pattern-like, allowing for more fluent and sustained, soaring melodies. There are also a few more playful accents and parallel chords. Otherwise, there is still that sense of Elizabethan wordplay and economy, but now with more dialogue between the men's and women's voices, providing for more drama and narrative.
Bradley Almquist and his excellent Murray State University Chorale, after having done the earlier Madrigals a number of times, commissioned this new set for a performance in Murray, Kentucky on April 27, 1997.
