Candace and friends,

When your note came this afternoon, I just happened to be glancing at a
beautiful work for tenor, flute, English horn, and string quartet by
Peter Warlock--The Curlew. The texts are by W. B. Yeats. In the score,
Warlock has this note: This work "should not be regarded as a set of
songs, but rather as a piece of chamber music in one continuous
movement." The text may be too gender-specific to be "doable" by a
soprano, but I think it is a great piece.

Carl Rogers
