Work introduction
I wrote this first song cycle after Robert Frost poems in 2011. This was the beginning of a long adventure with this poet, that lead me eventually to write cycles for all types of voices. Baritone , soprano and tenor cycles followed in 2012 and 2014. Robert Frost uses simple words to create extremely complex instruments of exploration of the universe. I chose all poems dating before 1937, for copyright reasons. But those poems are all the most famous and the deepest ones.You can consult the full list of poems and listen to the melodies in the orchestrated version by following the Soundcloud link below.
