1. Arrival Dream 2. Snow Squalls 3. It Happens 4. East Wind 5. A Clearer Memory The contrasting aspects of nature are a major theme in the work of Rhian Samuel, and in her song cycle Spring Diary for baritone and piano she responds passionately to its vernal magic. Beginning in dream and ending in memory, the five movements of the collection are a dramatic response to the turning season in Wales, conveyed through the fine detail of its characteristic weather and landscape as observed by the poet Anne Stevenson. Premiered at London's City University, Spring Diary is excellent material for graduate singers and pianists, who will draw inspiration from its vivid and assured word-setting and substantial and evocative keyboard part.

With their very accessible style and expressive interpretation of the words, these contemporary works continue in the tradition of classical and romantic song cycles and will form a form a welcome addition to every song recital. Abendröte is a cycle that brooks comparison with the songs Schubert wrote on the same set of Schlegel poems: Trojahn has composed the poems Schubert chose not to set.
