Composed by Alan Edgar, John Milton. 20th Century,Chamber,Christian,Religious. Score. 12 pages. Alan Edgar Ted Moon #734549. Published by Alan Edgar Ted Moon (A0.1134455).EVE’S PARADISE LOST Soprano (C up to G#), Pianoforte (also available with string quartet or reed quartet: oboes, clarinet, bassoon. Paradise Lost by The English poet John Milton is an epic occupying twelve books. It retells the tale of the Fall of Mankind – the moment when Adam and Eve were enticed by Satan to eat the forbidden fruit from the Tree of Knowledge, and as a result were banished from the Garden of Eden. Milton gives far more detail than Genesis. The song presents the story from Eve’s point of view. I edited the passages for scansion and to suit a modern ear, and ended up with lyrics that fall into three sections: Eve's feelings of shame and guilt, her overhearing the sentence, and her realisation of what she will lose. Octatonic and pentatonic modes. Many quartals. Intermediate. 6 minutes.
