Comm
issioned with Arts
Council of Wales funds by
the School of European
Studies, Cardiff
University, for the
centenary celebrations of
Samuel Beckett's birth,
The Flowing Sand is a
setting of five poems by
this seminal 20th-century
modernist that are
unified as a song-cycle
by meaningful contrasts
of mood and of musical
style. The movements are
'what would I do', 'my
way is in the sand', 'Da
Tagte Es', 'Roundelay'
and 'saying it again'.
Artistically challenging,
yet well within the
technical range of
enterprising
conservatoire students,
The Flowing Sand
is a major addition
to the repertoire of
contemporary art-song by
British composers, and a
significant contribution
to the celebrations of
the writer's anniversary
year.

In
her song-set for baritone
and piano A Swift
Radiant Morning,
Rhian Samuel, a noted
contemporary composer of
English song, has created
a portrait in words and
music of the young poet
Charles Hamilton Sorley
(1895-1915). Robert
Graves described Sorley's
death - at the Battle of
Loos - as among the three
most significant amongst
poets in the First World
War (the others being
Wilfred Owen and Isaac
Rosenberg). The five
songs are 'Rooks', 'The
Sounds of War', 'The
Signpost', 'In Memoriam',
and 'Earth's King'. The
composer offers in the
last song a celebration
of Sorley's life, and a
testament to his enduring
legacy. A Swift
Radiant Morning was
commissioned by the Three
Choirs Festival,
Hereford, 2015, for a
first performance by
Roderick Williams,
baritone, and Susie
Allan, piano, at Holy
Trinity Church, Hereford,
on 25 July 2015.

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.
