Voicing: SSAA and TTBB voicings available

Theme: Holiday, secular

Orchestration: Chorus and piano, soprano solo

About:

Mozart’s famous “Queen of the Night” aria is reimagined as a fraternity/sorority holiday party where “Becky” has had too much eggnog to drink and starts acting a fool. This piece is clearly tongue-in-cheek, but the TTBB version especially because of context might benefit from a PSA about consent and that Beck was never harmed at the party, but rather, taken care of as she got out of hand.

Text: Lady GaGa, German carol

Voicing: TTBB

Theme: Sacred, holiday, secular

Orchestration: Double TTBB choir, piano

About:

This is a mash-up of sorts of Lady GaGa’s “A Million Reasons” and the German carol, “Still, Still, Still.” The idea of the text is that we need reasons still to believe the Christmas story from so long ago with all the bad things that happen in our world. It was written for 2018 Twin Cities Gay Men’s Chorus’ holiday concert.
