Songs and Haiku For Female Voice and Piano Voice - Sheet Music

Voice (Female)

SKU: AP.12-0571541151

For Female Voice and Piano. Composed by Jonathan Harvey. Series; Vocal Collection. Faber Edition. Secular. Book. Faber Music #12-0571541151. Published by Faber Music (AP.12-0571541151).

ISBN 9780571541157. English.

Two haiku (the first for piano alone---the only piece here to have been published before---the latter by Basho) bookend three love songs dedicated to Harvey's wife, Rosa. The grouping of the pieces into an eight-minute cycle was the composer's own idea, and it mixes Eastern and Western poets in a totally characteristic manner. Both Tagore and e. e. cummings are represented, poets who are featured in some of Harvey's finest works (Song Offerings and Forms of Emptiness, respectively), and a third song sets Tennyson's Now Sleeps the Crimson Petal.
