The poetry of Langston Hughes has a natural rhythm to it. This music is urgent and driven and calls on the singers to produce a wide range of dynamics and emotions and, of course, rhythm.

Charles Anthony Silvestri's lyrics beautifully capture the sights, sounds, and events that stir up memories of a loved one who has passed away. A passion for nature is also reflected in the lyrics and further brought to life through an abundance of text painting in the music. I know you are gone, but your voice, it lingers on.

Composer: James Eakin
