              <text>An excerpt from the score for "Toward the Source," a commissioned piece of music by Joyce Mekeel. &#13;
&#13;
Image description: A portion of a musical score showing black staves on white paper. This excerpt is for percussion and chorus. Text in the top right corner reads "Tam-Tam soft sticks." The chorus's part is a spoken series of names, which include the following: Jeremiah Clark, Simeon Burrage, David Hartwell, Silas Joseph Hosmer, Samuel Emery, John Cole, Barnaby Davis, Edward Fredrick MacKenzie, Edward Gould, Thomas Barker, Waldron Kelly, Prince Estabrook, Cato Wood, Ezekiel Hagar. At the bottom of the page is a performance note: "Chorus: The rhythm written is not to be marked—it is merely an indication of syllabification. Each name should be spoken in a low voice—the effect should be a murmur, a river of names. Do not fall into a recitation on the pitch D. The D must be avoided by the chorus like the plague."</text>
