“In country lanes the robins sing
Clear-throated, joyous, swift of wing,
From misty dawn to dewy eve
(Though cares of nesting vex and grieve)
Their little heart-bells ring and ring.”
- Lüders
Twilight
“The birds have hushed themselves to rest
And night comes fast, to drop her pall
Till morn brings life to all.”
Amy Beach
Katy-dids
“The katy-did works her chromatic reed
On the walnut tree over the well.”
Whitman
Elfin Tarantelle
“Fairies, black, gray, green, and white,
You moonshine revelers, and shades of night.”
Shakespeare

Wonderful. Thanks so much! We're currently putting together a volume of choir songs for female choir by solely women composers. I came across your channel through the presentation on Cécile Chaminade. Very well done!! And Amy Beach is one of my favourites, too... 🎵💖

[@ShelestatthePiano]

I have heard some Chaminade's chorale pieces, they were beautiful and very colorful.

A wonderful selection, in turns: Delightful! ... Limpid and pensive... the busy Katy-did is aptly named! ... Elfin Tarantella bright, vigorous and fanciful. Beautiful presentation with the two camera angles... Bravo!
