About the Score

A setting of 6 miniatures, a little over five minutes in duration-- quotes from the beloved wit of Mark Twain, the works are suitable for advanced HS and collegiate or community ensembles. Co-commissioned by Urbandale High School and San Jose State University for unaccompanied SSAATTBB choir, the tongue-in-cheek quote settings include the following: 1) Never argue with stupid people. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. 2) I don't like to commit myself about heaven and hell, you see, I've got friends in both places. 3) When you are angry, count to four. When very angry, swear. 4)It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so. 5) Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself. 6) A gentleman is someone who knows how to play the banjo, and doesn't.
