This short, lively SATB piece is loads of fun and highlights the quintessential elements of the Acadian folksong tradition: podorythmie (seated foot-tapping), diddlage (mouth music), and the spoons. But, it also stretches the tradition to include more modern elements. Don’t be fooled by thinking this is just a simple folksong. It is a challenging and complex piece that reflects the innate musicality of this long-standing Canadian oral tradition.
Though this folksong can be found in other parts of French Canada, I chose to feature the Acadian dialect in this rendition because it is emblematic of the role that language sometime plays in creating social inequity.
Story synopsis: For those unfamiliar with the language, this video helps tell the song’s funny story of a young woman, Marie Madeleine, who has a rather difficult relationship w... less

Qui me consolera
dans la nuit noire,
la nuit plus noire
que les hommes
Non pas celle où l’on entre
pour mieux sentir le monde,
non pas celle qui contraint
à l’infini
par sa clarté soudaine
Non pas encore la nuit
de nos murmures roses,
et que j’entends
ton regard qui m’excède
et la respiration de l’enfant
(car il revient,
analogie des anges)
Qui me consolera
sans toi, sans lui
qui nous aime

Who will console me
in the dark night,
the night
darker than men
Not the one where we enter
to feel better the world,
not the one that constrains
to infinity
by its sudden clarity
Not yet night
of our pink whispers,
and that I hear
your look that exceeds me
and the breath of the child
(for he returns,
analogy of angels)
Who will console me
without you, without him
who loves us

"Un giorno di settembre, il mese azzurro,
tranquillo sotto un giovane susino
io tenni l’amor mio pallido e quieto
tra le mie braccia come un dolce sogno.
E su di noi nel bel cielo d’estate
c’era una nube ch’io mirai a lungo:
bianchissima nell’alto si perdeva
e quando riguardai era sparita.
E da quel giorno molte molte lune
trascorsero nuotando per il cielo.
Forse i susini ormai sono abbattuti:
Tu chiedi che ne è di quell’amore?
Questo ti dico: più non lo ricordo.
E pure certo, so cosa intendi.
Pure il suo volto più non lo rammento,
questo rammento: l’ho baciato un giorno.
Ed anche il bacio avrei... less
