The Burning Babe 3:45

4d ago3:45

3:45

I've recently made this 16th century poem into a song, but then I hesitated to present it this week – because Robert Southwell's "The Burning Babe" seems both inappropriate and appropriate for Christmas. Inappropriate because it's an intentionally harrowing, visionary poem. If what it describes was made into a film, its horror might ask it to be ke…

There's sunsets, mornings, cottages in this little 8-line poem made into a tidy 2 minute song. Don't…

Adapting Michael Strange: "To Claude Debussy's La Grotte" 2:01

2:01

I've long wanted to do a piece using the words of early 20th centery American poet Michael Strange, if only because her life story is so interesting.
