Disc 1 has 20 songs, some favorites are Palestrina's 'Sicut cervus,' Thomas Tomkins' 'When David Heard,' Schubert's 'Nachthelle-Opus 134,' Randall Thompson's 'Stopping by Woods,' Pablo Casals' 'Nigra sum,' Zoltan Kodaly's 'Esti dal,' Stravinsky's 4-part 'Podbliudniye,' the American Folk song 'He's Gone Away,' Conductor Marvin's 'Each Future Song,' Steven Sametz' 'Munus,' and Brahms' 'Wo ist ein so herrlich Volk.' Disc 2 features the World Premier of Robert Kyt's two-part 'Song of Awakening;' Part I is 'LamentÐO Lord Hear My Cry,' and Part II is 'PsalmÐThrough God Within.' Kyt's work was composed in honor of Dr. Marvin's retirement, and it is followed by remarks by Rev. Peter Gomes and Jack Megan. 'A Spring Farewell' is a rich, moving collection by three of America's best collegiate choruses, to honor their great Director, Conductor, teacher and friend as he steps down from his work of molding and making them what they are today!
