A setting for unaccompanied Mixed Choir (SATB)
of Canto 50 from the poem In Memoriam A.H.H. by Alfred Tennyson
Sung by Sarah Brailey & Matthew Curtis of Choral Tracks.
The text for Be Near Me is Canto 50 from the poem In Memoriam A.H.H. by the British Poet Laureate Alfred Tennyson (1809 -1892). Published in 1850, the poem is an extended requiem for the poet's beloved friend Arthur Henry Hallam, who died of a cerebral hemorrhage in 1833, age 22. It is considered one of the greatest poems of the 19th Century and was reported to be a great favorite of Queen Victoria.

A new setting – straightforward, text-driven, no extremes of range – no divisi, but has drone sections where staggered breathing would normally be used.
Erratum: Bar 9 should read "et spes" – it's been corrected in the score.

(ie major with flattened 7th)
When he killed the Mudjokivis,
Of the skin he made him mittens,
Made them with the fur side inside,
Made them with the skin side outside.
He, to get the warm side inside,
Put the inside skin side outside;
He, to get the cold side outside,
Put the warm side fur side inside.
That's why he put the fur side inside,
Why he put the skin side outside,
Why he turned them inside outside less
