For Tenor (or Soprano) Voice and Piano
By Larry Alan Smith
As with his Epigrams for soprano voice (491-00652), Smith turns to poems by Richard Nickson in this 1983 setting for tenor voice and piano, written for Paul Sperry. Three titles from the cycle Songs of the Silence include All Music, All Delight; The Fountain and the Fire; and Cadence. Listen to Sperry's performance of Songs of the Silence at Smith's website.
