Product Details


Product Description

Be Near Me is a setting of Canto 50 from the poem In Memoriam A.H.H. by Alfred Tennyson for unaccompanied mixed choir (SATB). Duration ca. 5'15".  

This is an adaptation for mens chorus of a work originally composed for mixed choir (SATB). The piano reduction (for rehearsal purposes only) keeps the original womens voices in the right hand, to help with clarity of line during rehearsal. It may also be helpful to separate the first tenors and baritones on one side and the second tenors and basses on the other, but that is entirely optional.

Published in 1850, the poem In Memoriam A.H.H. by the British Poet Laureate Alfred Tennyson (1809 -1892) is an extended requiem for the poets beloved friend Arthur Henry Hallam, who died of a cerebral hemorrhage in 1833, age 22.  The poem is considered one of the greatest poems of the 19th Century and was reported to be a great favorite of Queen Victoria.
