This song cycle consists of settings of three poems by Edna St. Vincent Millay. And even though they were written quite early in her career, they provide vivid evidence of her lyrical abilities and emotional insight. Steeped in images of longing and loss, the themes are operatic in scope and the music attempts to mirror those emotions, asking the performers to change gears quickly and frequently in order to convey the drama inherent in Millay's words. The duration of the cycle is approximately 8 minutes. It is also available in a setting for Mezzo-soprano, cello and piano.
