Summary of This Score
With Myla And The Boat-Tree, Isabelle Aboulker creates a musical tale intended for a narrator, children's choir, and instrumental accompaniment. Commissioned by the Villecroze Music Academy, this work (awarded in 2015 by the French Music Publishers Association) offers an artistic and educational adventure particularly suited to young singers: a gentle introduction to the world of stage, storytelling, and collective singing.
The story delicately addresses a universal theme: grief and memory. Myla, a little girl, faces the loss of the person she loved above all, her grandfather. Aboulker's music, full of nuance, supports the text with bright and expressive melodies, blending a gentle melancholy with touches of lightness that keep children's listening lively and engaged.
The choral part, designed in unison, emphasizes sound unity, articulation, and phrasing, while remaining immediately rewarding in rehearsal. Regarding accompaniment, the work exists in several configurations, allowing the project to be adapted to available resources: piano alone, trio formation (B-flat clarinet, cello, and piano), or larger instrumental ensemble. An excellent option for a music school performance, a staged audition, or an end-of-year project combining narration, choir, and instruments.
