Description:
The opening line of Sara Teasdale ™s poem, After Love, -There is no magic any more, establishes the theme of vanishing love. Stephen Chatman ™s setting of the poignant text, in the dark key of D flat major, emphasizes the natural rhythm of the words, mixed meters and irregular phrase lengths. The climax of the melody embraces sustained, intense vocal lines in contrary motion supported by an undulating piano accompaniment. One of a set of six of Teasdale's love songs. Duration: 1:45
