Our National Poetry Month celebration continues with a musical presentation of this sensuous Edna St Vincent Millay poem. Since I awoke this April morning to tree branches covered with wet April snow in my northern clime, I felt part of "the shared world" with this poet as I completed this song setting today.
The Parlando Project combines various words (mostly literary poetry) with original music in differing styles. We've done over 800 of these combinations. and you can hear any of them and read about our encounters with the words at our blog and archives located at frankhudson.org
