Gilbertson, Michael - Burst Forth, My Tears (SATB)
No.2 from "Three Madrigals After Dowland"
Instrumentation: SATB
This middle movement is rhythmic, dissonant and angry, expressing a release from the pain of death. When paired with the other two “Weep You No More” and “Come, Heavy Sleep,” this wonderful piece of programmatic writing is a lesson in musical emotion. Duration: ca. 4:00.
