Description:
From the American Romantic Era Choral Series comes this beautiful choral piece. Overlooked for too many years, Dr. David P. DeVenney's careful editing and research brings it to the performance hall again. A teacher at the New England Conservatory, JCD Parker was an excellent craftsman. This a cappella love song is absolutely charming. All three verses have musical similarities but the lyrics, by Heinrich Heine and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, differ in their exporessions of love. A delightful madrigal style piece it is easy to medium in difficulty.
