My setting of
Thomas Hardy's poem "To Life" was written for David W. Solomons (with whom I have
often collaborated), and specifically for the Third
Delian Suite.
The automatically-playing music (which you should be hearing when this
page is opened) is the synthesized combined version of these sound files: listed
below:
Introductory piece "Rêverie" for flute and guitar performed by
Michelle LaPorte and Gerry Saulter.
David W.
Solomons' version of "To Life".
This should
give an idea of the introductory character of the "Rêverie" which may
not be apparent in the other versions.
My page with the singing score created in Myriad Harmony Assistant-Virtual
Singer is here.
