Product Description

I set my first Christina Rossetti poem back in 1998 for my song cycle, "Love Songs." The poem "A Birthday" begins with the most delightful set of words, "My heart is a like a singing bird ..." Looking for something to set for my next song cycle I rediscovered Christina via his brother, the poet and painter, Dante Gabriel Rossetti. IMHO, he is much more brilliant as a painter, and his sister is the true genius poet!!! Christina's father emigrated to England from Italy in 1824. Consequently, all four children (Maria, Dante, William and Christina) spoke Italian at home when they were young. To my delight many of Christina's early poems are in Italian. And since I am an insufferable Italophile, this song cycle will consist only of her poems in Italian. I. Versi II. Amore e Dovere III. Amore e Dispetto IV. L'Uommibatto V. Cuccurucù! VI. Ninna-nanna VII. Chiesa e Signore
