This collection presents five Christina Rossetti poems set by Per Drud Nielsen for unaccompanied SATB choir.'Had Christina Rossetti lived 40 years earlier and not written in English but in German I am convinced that the many Lied-composers in the first half of the 19th century would have gathered around her. And in many ways I have set her poems to music in the spirit of the Lied tradition: I have made use of simple modified strophic forms. And if you hear a loan from a well-known Schumann-Lied in one of my Rossetti-songs you are not mistaken. - Per Drud Nielsen
