The text of The Roses features a ruba'i - a poem or a verse of a poem in Persian poetry (or its derivative in English and other languages) in the form of a quatrain, consisting of four lines (four hemistichs). This piece explores the text with two separate melodies that eventually come together with an optional duet or small group.

The Roses

Two/Three-Part Octavo

This secular work by John Lee Bonner sets the text of Shakespeare's Sonnet No. 18. This lush setting is treated tenderly, with harmonies that embrace the romantic imagery provided by Shakespeare. A stunning a cappella setting that is appropriate any time of the year, it finishes with a celebration, "So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see, so long lives this, and this gives life to thee."

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
